FRICTION PLATE

Product Description

The Kito L5H Series Lever Hoist Replacement Friction Plate is a genuine replacement part designed specifically for Kito L5H Series lever hoists. The friction plate is a critical internal brake component within the lever hoist mechanism, working in conjunction with the friction disc and brake assembly to provide controlled load holding and smooth load lowering during hoist operation. The friction plate creates the braking surface interface within the brake stack, and its condition directly affects the load-holding reliability and lowering control of the hoist. A worn or damaged friction plate can result in brake slippage, reduced load-holding capacity, and loss of controlled lowering function — all of which present serious safety hazards during lifting operations.

Replacing the friction plate with a genuine Kito L5H Series part ensures the brake assembly continues to operate within its original design specifications, maintaining the load-holding capacity and braking performance required for safe operation across the L5H Series rated capacity range. The L5H Series designation ensures this friction plate is the correct fit for L5H Series lever hoists and is not interchangeable with friction plates from other Kito series or capacity models without verification, as brake component dimensions and specifications vary between series.

Note: Friction plate replacement is a safety-critical maintenance procedure. Verify compatibility with your specific Kito L5H Series hoist model and serial number with the manufacturer's documentation or a qualified Kito service representative before installation. Brake component replacement must be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with the manufacturer's service guidelines. After brake component replacement, the hoist must be inspected and load-tested before returning to service.
