Built for demanding industrial lifting applications, the Ingersoll Rand 7756E-2C20-C16U 7756E Series Air Chain Hoist combines a 1,100 lb (0.50 Metric Ton) lifting capacity with a 20 ft lift, 16 ft Pendent drop, and a canvas chain container for safe chain storage during operation. Powered by compressed air, this pneumatic hoist delivers smooth, reliable lifting without requiring electrical power, making it an excellent choice for manufacturing plants, maintenance facilities, assembly operations, and industrial workstations requiring continuous-duty performance.
The 7756E Series features a compact planetary gear transmission for efficient power transfer and a self-adjusting, spring-applied, air-released disc brake that securely holds suspended loads whenever the air supply is interrupted. Equipped with a steel snap hook, Pendent control, and a durable canvas chain container, this configuration provides accurate load positioning while helping keep excess load chain safely contained during lifting operations.
