Product Description

Portable Electric Hanging Cable Hoists for Construction and Rigging

Portable electric hanging cable hoists provide compact powered lifting for construction sites, rigging work, warehouses, storage areas, plumbing applications, maintenance tasks, and confined spaces. Designed to attach quickly to suitable scaffolding, beams, or overhead structures, these mini cable hoists help raise and position loads with less manual effort and smooth, controlled operation.

Quick Hanging Hook Mounting

A simple hanging hook with safety latch allows fast setup on compatible support structures. The 360 degree swivel hook with safety latch helps align the load during lifting, making these hoists useful for temporary workstations, jobsite lifting, overhead installation, and material placement in tight areas.

Built-In Safety Features

Dual braking systems provide responsive stopping control during operation. A built-in raise and lower limit switch helps prevent excessive cable winding, while motor thermal overload protection adds another layer of safety during demanding use. Quick disconnect power and hand control cords support convenient setup and removal.

This family includes 300 lb., 500 lb., 700 lb., and 1,000 lb. capacity models with 90 feet of cable length. Cable sizes include 3/16 inch and 1/4 inch depending on capacity, with lifting speeds up to 60 feet per minute. Steel construction, low noise operation, and a durable orange powder-coated finish make these hanging cable hoists a practical choice for those needing portable electric lifting equipment.
