The everyday hand chain hoist, 1/2 through 10 ton

7 models · 1/2t / 1100 lbs – 10t / 22000 lbs · 1 mounting option

AMH Badger

AMH's mainstream hand chain hoist. A sealed gear case, a forged hook that opens rather than fractures under overload, and a Weston-style load brake that holds the load wherever the chain stops. The one we reach for when somebody needs a dependable manual hoist without paying for a premium badge.

Where it fits

  • General maintenance lifting
  • Shop and fabrication work
  • Anywhere a hoist hangs for years and gets used occasionally

Features

  • Zinc plated load chain as standard
  • Overload protection available as an option
  • Forged, heat treated hooks with safety latches
  • Sealed gearing

Worth knowing

Effort to lift rated load climbs with capacity — 87 lbs of pull at 3 ton. Above that, look hard at a lever hoist or an electric.
