Lever hoists, also known as lever blocks are portable devices that are very useful in tensioning. They can be used to lift loads in different positions including vertical and horizontal lifting.
Snatch blocks are typically used for short term and intermittent lifting applications where loads are required to be lifted or moved horizontally. They are easy to transport from location to location and are relatively quick and easy to rig.
A chain hoist is a mechanical device used for lifting heavy loads of objects and equipment. It is made with a pulley, which is held together by a closed chain. The closed chain forms a loop, which makes it easy to be pulled by hand.
