The OZ020-20CHOP Premium Chain Hoist delivers superior performance, safety, and reliability for professional lifting applications. With a 2-ton (4,000 lb) capacity, this hoist is equipped with Standard Overload Protection, preset at approximately 150% of the rated load to prevent accidental overloading. Designed with double-reduction gearing for effortless lifting and a hand-wheel system that ensures smooth chain operation from any angle, this model provides consistent power and control. Its all-steel construction and powder-coated finish make it a long-lasting solution for heavy-duty industrial environments.

Product Description

Built for efficiency, precision, and durability, the OZ020-20CHOP Premium Chain Hoist is the ideal choice for professionals who demand performance and safety in every lift. Engineered to handle loads up to 2 tons (4,000 lbs) with a 20-foot lift height, this hoist offers an optimal balance between strength and ease of operation. It’s designed for a wide range of lifting and pulling applications, including manufacturing, construction, maintenance, and warehouse operations.

The Standard Overload Protection (SOP) is factory-calibrated at approximately 150% of the rated load, providing automatic resistance when excessive force is applied—protecting both the hoist and the operator. The double-reduction gearing system reduces the amount of effort required to lift or lower heavy loads, ensuring smooth, controlled operation. This feature makes it a reliable tool for repetitive use in high-demand settings.

The innovative hand-wheel design allows for smooth and consistent chain movement from multiple angles, giving operators flexibility when working in confined or irregular spaces. The Grade 80 zinc-plated load chain resists corrosion and provides superior strength, ensuring dependable performance even in harsh environments.

Built with heavy-duty all-steel construction, the OZ020-20CHOP is designed to withstand years of rugged use. Its powder-coated exterior protects against rust, wear, and impact damage, extending its operational life. Inside, sealed roller bearings and enclosed gearing protect internal components from dirt, moisture, and debris, reducing maintenance and ensuring consistent performance.

Safety is reinforced with a Weston-style braking system featuring twin pawls for reliable load holding and controlled lowering. Both the top and bottom hooks are forged from high-strength alloy steel and equipped with 360° swivel action, making load positioning easier and safer. The lower hook also features a thrust bearing to prevent chain twisting during operation.

Each hoist is equipped with a stainless steel identification tag containing a unique serial number and test certificate for quality verification and traceability. The package includes a spare set of safety latches, providing additional peace of mind for long-term service.
