Product Description

The JET 453317 is a heavy-duty hand chain hoist rated at 17.5 tons, designed for manual overhead lifting in demanding industrial and trade environments. Hand chain hoists of this capacity are used by millwrights, riggers, electricians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who need reliable load control without powered equipment. At 24 pounds, this unit is built for jobsite portability while handling substantial loads. The 453317 delivers the mechanical advantage required for positioning heavy machinery, structural components, and large equipment assemblies in facilities where overhead lifting is a routine task.

This hoist is suited for use in industrial plants, construction sites, warehouses, and mechanical rooms. Applications include equipment installation and removal, load positioning during structural work, and rigging operations where a fixed or portable overhead anchor point is available. It is a fit for contractors and maintenance crews who require a dependable manual lift solution for high-capacity loads without reliance on electrical power.

Installation Notes

Installation and rigging of overhead hoists should be performed by a qualified rigger or licensed millwright in accordance with applicable ASME B30 standards and OSHA regulations. Before use, verify that the overhead support structure, beam clamp, or trolley anchor point is rated for the full working load including dynamic forces. Never exceed the rated load capacity and inspect the chain, hooks, and body for wear or damage before each lift. Disconnect or lock out any adjacent powered equipment before beginning overhead lift operations in the work area.
