The thicker material strengthens the latch, which engages with the tip of the hook for secure closure.

Technical Characteristics
Smaller, Lighter, Stronger
We use double-reduction gearing and a patented induction-hardening process to produce load-bearing parts that reduce the weight and size of hoists while improving overall strength. Consequently, less hand force is required for operation and portability is improved.
Nickel-plated Super-strong Load Chain (Breaking Stress of 1000 N/㎟)
Abrasion- and corrosion-resistant, plated load chain grade V (high breaking strength of 1,000 N/mm²)
Super-strong Frame
A patented induction-hardening process used to produce load-bearing parts makes the frame stronger and more rigid. The high-impact steel housing has a weight similar to aluminum due to the compact design.
Increased Lever Strength
A new shape and thicker material creates a very strong lever handle.
Hook Latch with Safety Mechanism
Hooks
Hooks are forged from super-strong alloy steel allowing the use of smaller and lighter hooks with larger capacities – from 2.5 to 9 ton.
Cap Nuts Used for Easier Maintenance
Cap nuts are used to fasten the gear case and brake cover protecting the screw from damage and facilitating maintenance.
KITO Original Free Chain Adjusting Mechanism
Use the free knob to swiftly and easily adjust the chain. A unique design helps prevent inadvertent freewheeling under load.
Reliable (Mechanical) Brake
Delivers excellent performance thanks to a brake design incorporating two moisture-resistant, asbestos-free brake pads and four braking surfaces. Includes two brake pawls for added reliability.
Bottom Yoke with Safety Guard
Features a guard protecting the chain pin and nut from damage, enhancing safety.
