LOAD CHAIN FOR HOIST 3/4 TON

Product Description

The Kito Load Chain is a genuine OEM replacement component designed for use in Kito L5 LB Series lever hoists at the 3/4 Ton capacity rating, identified by part number LCLB010. The load chain is the primary load-bearing element of the lever hoist, transmitting the full working load between the load sheave and the lower hook assembly during every lift cycle. Maintaining a load chain that is in sound condition and within the manufacturer's wear tolerances is one of the most critical aspects of hoist inspection and maintenance, as a worn, damaged, or elongated chain is a direct risk to the safety of the lift and the personnel working in the area.

The load chain on a lever hoist is subject to wear, elongation, corrosion, and mechanical damage over its service life through repeated loading cycles, shock loading, side loading, and exposure to harsh operating environments including moisture, chemicals, abrasives, and extreme temperatures. Kito specifies maximum allowable elongation limits for each chain size and capacity class, and chains that have reached or exceeded these limits must be replaced immediately regardless of visible condition. Additional conditions requiring immediate chain replacement include twisted or kinked links, cracked or deformed links, gouges or nicks in the link surface, corrosion pitting that reduces the cross-sectional area of the chain wire, and any link that does not articulate freely through the load sheave.

Part number LCLB010 confirms this chain is the correct OEM specification for the L5 LB Series 3/4 Ton lever hoist configuration, ensuring correct pitch, wire diameter, link geometry, and material grade for this specific hoist model. Using a genuine Kito OEM load chain maintains the full rated capacity and safe working load of the hoist following chain replacement and ensures proper engagement with the load sheave throughout the full lift range.

Key Features: Genuine Kito OEM replacement load chain Designed for Kito L5 LB Series lever hoist - 3/4 Ton capacity Part number LCLB010 Alloy steel construction to OEM specifications Ensures correct pitch, wire diameter, link geometry, and material grade for rated capacity

Note: Load chain replacement must be performed by a qualified hoist technician. The hoist must be fully inspected, function tested, and load tested before returning to service following chain replacement. Never splice, repair, or modify a load chain. Always replace with genuine OEM chain of the correct grade, pitch, and diameter for the specific hoist model and capacity rating.
