HOIST AIR .25T 6FT LIFT 25FPM

Product Description

The Kito Air Hoist is a pneumatically operated lifting tool engineered for industrial environments where electric hoists are impractical or prohibited, such as hazardous locations, wet environments, paint booths, and facilities where compressed air is the primary utility. With a 1/4 Ton (250 kg) rated capacity, 6 ft of lift, and a lift speed of 25 FPM, this hoist is well suited for light-duty precision lifting, parts manipulation, assembly line assistance, and ergonomic load handling applications where smooth, variable-speed control and a compact footprint are required. The hook mount suspension allows for quick and flexible installation on beams, trolleys, and other overhead structures.

The manipulator designation indicates this air hoist is configured or suited for use in load manipulation and ergonomic assist applications, where the operator guides and positions the load with minimal physical effort rather than simply lifting and lowering between fixed points. Air hoists in this application class are valued for their smooth and infinitely variable speed control, which is achieved by modulating the air supply through the pendant throttle valve. This allows the operator to move loads with a level of precision and responsiveness that is difficult to achieve with standard electric chain hoists, making the Kito air hoist well suited for assembly, inspection, and positioning tasks requiring fine load control.

Pneumatic hoists offer several operational advantages in industrial environments, including intrinsic safety in the presence of flammable gases or dust, resistance to moisture and washdown conditions, and the ability to operate continuously without the thermal limitations associated with electric motors. The 25 FPM lift speed provides a practical balance between cycle time and control precision for light-duty manipulation tasks, and the hook mount configuration allows this hoist to be paired with compatible air-powered or manual trolleys for horizontal load travel when required.
