Chain hoists powerful, reliable, and undemanding.  Offers considerable economic advantages.

The ST chain hoist programme from STAHL CraneSystems ranks among the most distinctive and comprehensive on offer. In use in thousands of applications for many decades, modernised and optimised over and over again, this chain hoist is
a classic. Powerful, reliable and undemanding as regards maintenance and power consumption.

The ST series is available in 13 S.W.L. ranges, from 125 kg to 6,300 kg. It can be used as a stationary hoist with suspension hook or eye, with rigid mounting, or with a push or electric trolley, and is particularly suitable for rugged applications in industry. The innovative and pioneering chain hoist design offers considerable economic advantages.

The extremely short headroom available as an alternative for every type of chain hoist optimises the effective hook height while keeping wear on the chain to a minimum. In addition to the standard designs, off-standard versions and individual solutions for customers are available. The ST chain hoist programme from STAHL CraneSystems is also available in explosion-protected design for Zone 1, Zone 21 and Zone 22.

STAHL CraneSystems was the first hoist manufacturer to convert the whole chain hoist programme to ATEX.
