The Ingersoll Rand Premium Series VL2 Chain Hoist Body is a heavy-duty manual chain hoist rated at 20 Tonne working load limit, engineered for demanding industrial lifting applications in steel fabrication, heavy manufacturing, shipbuilding, mining, and other heavy industrial environments where high-capacity manual lifting capability is required. The VL2 designation identifies this hoist within Ingersoll Rand's Premium Series manual chain hoist line, indicating the specific hoist body configuration and capacity rating within the series.
The chain hoist body is the core mechanical assembly of the hoist, comprising the load chain, hand chain, load sheave, mechanical advantage gear train, load brake, and hook assemblies that together provide the manual lifting and lowering capability of the hoist. At 20 Tonne working load limit, this hoist body is engineered for the highest capacity manual chain hoist applications, providing the mechanical advantage required to lift loads of this magnitude through manual hand chain operation while maintaining controlled and precise load positioning throughout the lift.
The Premium Series designation indicates construction to Ingersoll Rand's premium quality and performance standards, with robust internal components, precision-engineered gear trains, and reliable load brake mechanisms designed for long service life in continuous-duty heavy industrial applications. As an Ingersoll Rand product, the VL2 chain hoist body is built to the engineering and quality standards associated with the Ingersoll Rand line of industrial hoists and should be installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with Ingersoll Rand's specifications and applicable overhead hoist and crane safety standards including ASME B30.16.
