If you find yourself in need of equipment to safely lift a heavy load, it's important that you get hold of the correct apparatus to tackle the task - in many cases, what you need is a chain block.
While a chain block (also known as a chain hoist) has many uses in factories, worksites and garages, we understand that not everyone requires the use of a chain block permanently. That's why SafetyLiftinGear provides the option to rent a wide variety of chain blocks to suit your particular needs.
A chain block is a lifting and lowering apparatus which can help move heavy loads weighing up to a few tonnes. They must be attached to a rated lifting point or a mobile gantry - also available to hire from SafetyLiftinGear.
When renting a chain block hoist, it is important to decide whether you need a manual or electric chain block.
Manual chain hoists use a number of cogs to exert force over a heavy object allowing for accurate lifting and lowering of heavy loads. The load is lifted by the user pulling on a hand chain to operate the machine. This lifting technique will get your job done, and manual chain blocks are generally cheaper to rent when compared with the electric chain blocks that are available to hire. However, the process will inevitably be slower.
So, if you're in a hurry, or have multiple loads to move - renting an electric chain block from SLG is the best option for you. An electric chain block works on the same premise as a manual hoist - the addition of electricity simply means it works automatically and can be easily managed through the use of a remote control.

Hiring a chain block from SafetyLiftinGear allows yows you to get a one-off job done without the commitment of purchasing a chain block outright. Our rental services are top-notch with fast delivery, clear instructions and great value prices. When browsing our chainblock page, simply click 'hire me' to find all rental details.
