Atlas Lifting and Rigging ALH 2-1/2 Ton Lever Chain Hoist 20 Ft. Chain 5511 lbs

Description

Align heavy equipment with Atlas Lifting and Rigging ALH manual force when a 2-1/2-ton capacity and 20-foot chain fit extended machinery work. Experienced maintenance crews gain controlled positioning during plant repair, structural fabrication, and equipment installation, but can the chain hoist hold safely when the supporting anchor is not rated for the complete load? Its all-steel construction, zinc-coated components, sintered brake, welded stay bolts, and high-strength side plates support lifting within documented limits.

Model ALH-025-20 lists a 2-1/2-ton capacity, 5,500-lb maximum load, 20-foot lift, 45.1-lb assembled weight, 7-inch depth, 6-inch width, and 13.5-inch height. Atlas identifies quick-adjust free-spool operation, blue grease, zinc-coated components, welded structural stay bolts, high-strength side plates, and a sintered brake system. The product is listed as ASTM B30.21 compliant and carries a 3-Year Limited Warranty.

Features of Atlas ALH

Construction rigging, machinery alignment, facility maintenance, and structural work require a long-reach lever hoist with portable mechanical advantage. Trained operators can use this 2-1/2-ton model after checking the anchor, chain direction, hook seating, load balance, and working load limit.

• 2-1/2-ton capacity supports compatible machinery and structural components.
• 5,500-lb maximum load is listed for compatible industrial applications.
• 20-foot chain length reaches elevated beams and remote connection points.
• Quick-adjust free-spool operation helps position chain before tensioning.
• Sintered brake construction supports controlled load holding when the lever stops.
• Zinc-coated components help protect selected surfaces during harsh exposure.
• Welded stay bolts reinforce the all-steel housing.
• High-strength side plates support the internal lever mechanism.

Load Test Capacity Control

No independent proof-load result, brake-holding measurement, chain elongation test, hook-throat measurement, handle-force value, or field telemetry was supplied. Do not treat 5,500 lbs as a proof load or breaking strength. Shock loading, side loading, corrosion, poor anchoring, and misaligned hooks can increase stress through the chain, brake, hooks, side plates, and support structure.

Rigging Limits Service

The 20-foot chain, manual lever, free-spool adjustment, sintered brake, zinc-coated components, and steel body support controlled industrial positioning. This lever hoist is not verified for personnel lifting, operation above the marked capacity, side-loaded hooks, shock loading, or suspended loads over people.

• Inspect chain links for stretch, twisting, corrosion, cracks, gouges, and deformation.
• Check hooks, latches, brake components, side plates, stay bolts, and anchor hardware.
• Remove the unit from service if the lever binds or braking becomes abnormal.

Warranty Compliance Contents

The product listing states a 3-Year Limited Warranty and ASTM B30.21 compliance. Package contents identify the hoist. Verify current warranty terms, nameplate capacity, operator manual, inspection certificate, 20-foot chain, hooks, safety latches, and applicable OSHA requirements before commercial service.
