  • Chain Hoist Block helped to create a more garage space

    Having Arthritic Shoulders means I can’t lift very heavy loads and I needed to create space in my garage that the heavy electric bike was taking up. All the space of the garage walls was needed for storage of various items and appliances and the bike was a nuisance where it was parked in the way of other items causing an inconvenience when trying to get access to the various appliances. So, I had a brainwave of making a wooden frame for the bike to be secured to horizontally by cable ties to stop it sliding off the frame at any time. Then by using the wooden bike frame I used 2 off 1-ton strops placed strategically on the bike frame (Not the bike) and when its centre of gravity was determined, the strops were hooked onto the chain pulley block hook. Finding this C of G is trial and error, but the slow lifting and lowering action of the chain block meant you could experiment safely changing the positions of the strops on the frame until its C of G was found. When this C of G was found the Frame balanced when lifted then it could gently and slowly be lifted toward the garage roof trestles. The chain ran freely and easily lifting the frame and bike horizontally upwards toward the garage roof trestles with very little effort and because it lifts slowly it is easy to guide and manipulate your load to where you want it. In my case to be left pressed against the roof frame. There it hangs in place until I want to lower it using the chain block hoist It is important you follow the instructions on the use of the chain hoist and keep the lift vertical and not at an angle. I strengthened the timber work where the chain block was hooked up to and I used 3mm thick wall steel tubing. The hook size is relatively small throat and tubing of about 20mm Outside Día will be needed for it to click straight on, but I used 26mm OD and that meant that I had to fix the steel tubing into the 2 suitable wall flanges for that O.D steel tubing with the chain block attached permanently to the tubing because of its hook throat size, but inside the hook once past its throat 26mm O.D. is no problem. I did think about using electric hoist, but this is simpler and a lot cheaper and safe. This solved a space problem in the garage, being able to get the bike up and down with the limited strength of my shoulders. I definitely recommend this 1 ton lifting chain hoist, Perhaps more information could of been provided on the hook size. Good value for money at under £28.

  • Katsu Chain Block.

    This tool lived up to the description on E bay. The delivery was prompt, quality - good and the price was great. I needed it for one lifting job (450 kgs brick oven) and it saved me a fortune. I won't part with it because I know now just how useful it could be in the future.

  • Reasonable tool, budget price

    For the price, it provides a good, light, chain hoist facility. I have yet to try it on more than 75 kg, and have to say it doesn’t have the feel of solid quality that my previous hoists have had, but it works, and I anticipate it would lift 1000 kg if needed.

  • Lightweight, smooth action

    Bought this hoist to do a job on the Triumph, the other option was to buy a purpose made stand for 3 times the price. Having never used one before I was impressed by how easy and smoothly it lifted the front end off the ground. Bargain.

  • Does what it says on the label.

    Very good value for money, works as expected used 4 times so far and does the job very well. Yes, I really would recommend it and for the money you will be hard pushed to beat it.

  • Great for lifting engines

    Bought to lift 2.5l 6 cylinder engine on and off engine stand. I used a scaffold bar over the ceiling joists of my garage to hang it. Works great - very little effort required to easily and safely lift and rotate my engine as a 1 man job. Recommended.

  • Solid and robust

    Yet to test lifting really heavy weight objects, but meanwhile very happy with a very solidly built and robust bit of kit. The gearing ratio makes lifting easy if slow, which is a good thing when moving big heavy things around on your own.

  • just the job for vertical lifts up to 1 ton.

    I needed a block an tackle to assemble a new lathe weighing a total of 210kg. Using a beam in the garage roof I set up the chain block over the assembly area, using soft strops the chain block worked perfectly, although the operating chain did need to be in the perfect vertical to avoid jamming. but this is to be expected. highly recommended.
