What is a Manual Chain Hoist?
A manual chain hoist, also known as a chain block or hand hoist, is a mechanical lifting device operated by pulling a chain to raise or lower loads. It uses a system of gears and load chains to multiply human force, enabling efficient lifting of heavy loads with minimal effort.
