Product Description
Milwaukee 1/2 Ton Chain Hoist
Model Number: 9768-20
The Milwaukee 9768-20 is a 1/2 Ton (1,000 lb.) Hand Chain Hoist — a manual lifting device for raising, lowering, and positioning loads up to 1,000 lb. in construction, mechanical installation, equipment maintenance, and rigging applications where controlled vertical movement is needed and a powered hoist is unavailable or impractical. The hand chain hoist uses a hand-operated pull mechanism with internal gear reduction to convert manageable hand pull force into the 1/2 ton lifting force for structural components, mechanical equipment, HVAC units, and building materials that must be lifted to elevated installation positions or lowered for service. The standard lift height version handles the vertical travel needed for most single-floor lifting tasks — equipment hoisting from grade to installation height, rigging structural members into position during framing, and the range of controlled vertical lifts in construction and industrial maintenance work within the rated capacity.
Milwaukee builds the chain hoist to professional standards with the load chain, hooks, and internal mechanism rated for the 1/2 ton working load limit under the repeated lifting cycles of construction and industrial use. The top hook provides attachment to the overhead structural support, and the bottom hook connects to the load using compatible rigging hardware rated for the hoist's working load limit. Always follow proper rigging practice, assess load stability before lifting, and observe all applicable safety regulations for lifting operations. Available in larger capacities including 1 ton and 3 ton for heavier lifting requirements.
