Product Description
The Kito LX Series Lever Hoist with Slip Clutch is a high-capacity manual lifting tool built for the most demanding industrial lifting, pulling, and tensioning applications. With a 3 Ton rated capacity and 20 ft of lift, this hoist delivers the reach and strength required for heavy construction, structural steel erection, shipbuilding, heavy equipment positioning, and large-scale rigging operations where manual load control over extended vertical distances is essential.
The slip clutch overload protection mechanism is integrated into the drive system to automatically disengage when the applied load exceeds the hoist's rated capacity. This protects both the equipment and the operator by preventing operation beyond safe working limits. The slip clutch also provides tactile resistance feedback as loads approach the rated limit, giving operators an early warning before disengagement occurs and allowing for more controlled and deliberate load management in critical rigging scenarios.
At the 3 Ton capacity class, the Kito LX Series is constructed with a heavy-duty alloy steel load chain and a reinforced steel housing designed to withstand sustained high loads and repeated use in harsh environments. The ergonomic lever handle provides precise forward and reverse load control, and the free-chaining function allows rapid hook positioning without engaging the load brake. Despite its substantial capacity, the LX Series design prioritizes portability and field serviceability, making it a practical choice for operations requiring a high-capacity manual hoist across multiple work locations.
