Spur gear chain hoist model VS III features an all-steel housing and high-quality bearings for the drive pinion and load sprocket. It includes a continuous stud bolt between the side plates and the cover attachment, and the handwheel cover is reinforced with additional stiffeners. The bearings and bearing bushes are encapsulated and permanently lubricated within the gearbox. The brake system is protected against dust, foreign bodies, and corrosion. The friction discs are asbestos-free and surface-protected, while the round steel chains are high-strength and comply with national and international regulations. The suspension and load hooks are forged from aging-resistant, alloyed tempered steel, designed to open without breaking when overloaded, and feature robust safety brackets that can rotate through 360 degrees. Delivery includes operating instructions with an integrated EC Declaration of Conformity. Note: Precisely machined guide rollers ensure optimum running of the load chain, contributing to a durable and maintenance-friendly design.
