Habegger wire rope hoists
Hand-operated wire rope hoists for pulling and lifting, from 600 kg to 3.2 t.
Jakob referenceOverviewWhat it is
Habegger HIT hoists work on a simple principle: the rope passes through two pairs of clamping jaws, and moving the lever back and forth advances it smoothly without slipping. Both jaws clamp automatically under load, harder as the load rises.
They lift, lower, secure and pull loads, tension ropes and position heavy parts on site. Motorised HIT-TRAC models are available on request.
