Hoisting equipment FAQs.
Common questions about chain blocks, lever hoists, electric hoists, air hoists, beam trolleys, beam clamps and hoist selection.
What hoisting equipment can Durham Lifting supply?
Durham Lifting can supply a wide range of hoisting equipment including manual chain hoists, chain blocks, lever hoists, pull lifts, electric chain hoists, air hoists, beam trolleys, beam clamps and hoist accessories.
Can you help choose the right hoist for my application?
Yes. Our sales team can help identify suitable hoisting equipment based on the load weight, lift height, duty cycle, available suspension point, power supply, working environment and documentation requirements.
What is the difference between a chain block and a lever hoist?
A chain block is commonly used for vertical lifting and lowering using a hand chain. A lever hoist, also known as a pull lift, is operated by a lever and is often used for lifting, pulling, tensioning or positioning loads in more compact or awkward locations.
Can you supply electric hoists and air hoists?
Yes. Durham Lifting can supply powered hoisting equipment including electric chain hoists and air hoists. The right option will depend on the lifting frequency, duty cycle, power supply, environment and how the hoist will be mounted or suspended.
Can hoisting equipment be supplied with certification?
Where required, hoisting equipment can be supplied with suitable certification and supporting documentation. Certification requirements should be confirmed at enquiry stage so the correct product and paperwork can be provided.
