Description


Ingersoll Rand ML500K-2C12-B8U MLK Series Air Chain Hoist is designed for reliable overhead lifting in manufacturing, maintenance, assembly, and material handling applications. Featuring a 1/2 Ton (1,100 lb / 500 kg) rated capacity, 12 ft lift, and 8 ft pendent drop, this pneumatic chain hoist delivers smooth, precise load positioning while operating on compressed air for continuous industrial service. The ergonomic 2-button pendent control provides responsive lifting and lowering, while the Bullard self-closing bottom hook enhances load retention. The "U" configuration includes a fabric chain container to safely manage excess load chain during operation.

Powered by a high-efficiency six-vane air motor, the ML500K-2C12-B8U is engineered for a continuous 100% duty cycle. A spring-engaged, air-release non-asbestos disc brake automatically secures suspended loads whenever the controls are released. The compact hook-mounted design minimizes installation headroom, while upper and lower limit stops help protect the hoist by preventing excessive chain travel. According to the Ingersoll Rand 7756 Industrial Lifting Equipment Catalog, this model utilizes a single-fall load chain configuration.
