Chain blocks is a versatile way to lift a load. The lifting equipment is operated by pulling the chains by hand. The internal gears mean that very little force is required to lift large, heavy loads of up to 30,000kg. Chain blocks are safe to use because they contain a double pawl brake system, forged safety latch and forged and heat treated load hooks with batch traceability and stretch indicators. These safety features allow efficient and secure lifting, dragging and securing of loads in a variety of settings, including power plants, laboratories and factories. This type of lifting equipment is also used for installing machines and repairing goods. Chain blocks are particularly useful for overhead working and for operation in narrow places.
