Chain Blocks Hire

Coates offers chain hoists with capacities ranging from 0.5 tonnes to 30 tonnes, plus we can source larger capacities if required. Always check the specifications to ensure the chain hoist meets your lifting requirements and complies with safety regulations for your project.

The lifting height of a chain hoist varies by model. Typically, chain hoists can lift between 3 to 30 metres, depending on capacity and type. Always check the specifications to ensure the equipment suits your lifting height requirements.

A pneumatic chain hoist uses compressed air to lift and lower heavy loads. It is ideal for hazardous environments where electrical sparks could pose a risk. Pneumatic chain hoists are commonly used in workshops for lifting engines and heavy components; construction and mining sites for moving heavy equipment; and shipyards and refineries where explosive atmospheres are a risk.
