The griphoist®/tirfor® lifting and pulling hoist is safe, reliable and efficient. Suitable for many applications, the griphoist®/tirfor® is a lever-operated wire rope hoist using a separate wire rope. One-man operated, using a telescopic operating handle, it can work in any position and over any height of lift. It can replace conventional winches and other hoists for many applications. Best uses are when doing long pulls or when requirements call for increasing capacity.
It is possible for lifting and pulling applications to increase the capacity of the griphoist®/tirfor® by using multiple sheave blocks without the user being directly in front of load.
Light and compact, the griphoist®/tirfor® T500 series is easy to handle, provides a high mechanical advantage and is economical.
