Built for overhead lifting in manufacturing facilities, maintenance shops, fabrication plants, and industrial assembly operations, the Ingersoll Rand HL3000K-1C10-C6 HLK Series Air Chain Hoist combines a 3 Ton (6,600 lb) lifting capacity with a 10 ft lift and 6 ft pull chain control drop to provide dependable material handling for medium-capacity lifting tasks. Its pneumatic drive eliminates the need for electrical power, making it well-suited for continuous-duty applications where precise load positioning and reliable performance are essential. The pull-chain control allows operators to accurately regulate lifting and lowering speeds, while the steel snap-hook bottom suspension provides secure load attachment.
The HLK Series is engineered with a modular design featuring interchangeable components that simplify servicing and help minimize downtime. A self-adjusting air-operated disc brake, precision planetary gearing, and bearing-supported rotating assemblies work together to deliver smooth lifting performance and dependable load control. Rated for a 100% duty cycle and HMI Duty Classification A5, this air chain hoist is designed for continuous industrial lifting where productivity and safe operation are priorities.
