Ingersoll Rand CL250K-2C12-C8U CLK Series Air Chain Hoist | 1/4 Ton Capacity | 12 ft Lift | 8 ft Drop | Steel Snap Hook | Pendent Control

Built for lifting and positioning heavier loads in manufacturing, maintenance, assembly, and production environments, the Ingersoll Rand CL250K-2C12-C8U Air Chain Hoist combines a 1/4 Ton (550 lb / 250 kg) capacity with a 12 ft lift and 8 ft pendent drop for dependable overhead material handling. As part of the CLK Series, this pneumatic chain hoist features a six-vane air motor that delivers a 100% duty cycle, allowing continuous operation without the overheating associated with electric hoists. The responsive 2-button pendent control enables smooth and accurate load positioning, while the steel snap hook with safety latch provides secure load attachment during lifting operations.

Designed for reliable industrial service, the CL250K-2C12-C8U incorporates a spring-engaged, air-release non-asbestos disc brake that automatically secures suspended loads whenever the controls are released. Upper and lower limit stops help prevent excessive chain travel, while the compact hook-mounted configuration minimizes installation headroom requirements. An integrated fabric chain container keeps excess load chain neatly contained during operation, and quiet operation below 75 dBA makes this hoist suitable for production facilities, maintenance departments, fabrication shops, and assembly workstations.
