LOWEST SELF WEIGHT IN ITS CLASS

Both GIS' LPML250 and LPLL500 series of production rigging electric motor hoists have exceptional weight to capacity ratios, with the LPML weighing only 12kg and lifting 500kg, and the LPL weighing in at 23kg with a lifting capacity of 1000kg. Ideal for mobile use, the lower weight offers advantages on storage and mobility, while having positive impacts on transportation costs.

Modular in design, both have compact profiles making them perfectly suited for integration with trusses. The LPML250 fits in a 300mm square truss, while the LPL500 fits in a 400mm square truss. Irrespective of compact size, the wearing parts of both models can be replaced easily, making it a technicians best friend.

The case hardened, square profile galvanised steel chain provides around 15% more capacity at an identical nominal diameter when compared to conventional round steel chain. The large cross-sectional area reduces wear, while extending the lifecycle of the chain. The load hook has a stable guided hook latch and safety rubber buffer, providing maximum safety.

One of the most solid features of these entertainment rigging hoists is their weather resistance, protected to IP65. This means that they are dust proof and protected against water jets. Perfectly suited to outdoor use.
