A wire rope pulling hoist is a type of manual hoisting device that uses a wire rope to lift and move heavy loads. It consists of a hand-operated lever or crank, a drum or spool, and a wire rope with a hook or other lifting attachment at the end. The wire rope is wound around the drum or spool, and when the lever or crank is pulled, the wire rope is tightened, causing the load to lift.
Wire rope pulling hoists are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and other industries where heavy loads need to be lifted or moved. They are also useful in situations where electrical power is not available or where electric or hydraulic hoists are impractical or too expensive.
