Designed for dependable overhead lifting in manufacturing, maintenance, assembly, and material handling applications, the Ingersoll Rand ML500K-2A10-C6U Air Chain Hoist combines a 1/2 Ton (1,100 lb / 500 kg) capacity with a 10 ft lift and 6 ft pendent drop for smooth, controlled load handling. Part of the MLK Series, this pneumatic chain hoist features a high-efficiency six-vane air motor engineered for continuous 100% duty cycle operation. The responsive 2-button pendent control enables precise lifting and lowering, while the steel snap hook provides secure load attachment. This "U" configuration includes a fabric chain container for organized management of excess load chain.
Built for demanding industrial service, the ML500K-2A10-C6U incorporates a spring-engaged, air-release non-asbestos disc brake that automatically holds suspended loads whenever the control is released. Upper and lower limit stops help prevent excessive chain travel, and the compact hook-mounted configuration minimizes installation headroom. According to the Ingersoll Rand manufacturer catalog, this model utilizes a single-fall load chain arrangement for dependable lifting performance.
