VITAL Manual Chain Block – 5 Ton, 10 Meter Lift, Made in Japan - VL5-50-T10

Extended Reach 5-Ton Chain Hoist

When industrial environments demand extreme lifting power paired with an extended reach, the VITAL VL5-50-T10 is the ultimate solution. Manufactured in Japan to exacting engineering standards, this heavy-duty manual chain hoist boasts a massive 5-ton (5000 kg) lifting capacity. What sets this specific model apart is its specialized 10-meter alloy steel load chain, granting operators the vital extended height required for massive construction sites, deep shaft operations, and towering shipyards. Despite its incredible reach, it maintains a remarkably compact 600mm headroom design, allowing it to operate efficiently in confined spaces where bulkier equipment fails. To guarantee absolute structural integrity and operator confidence, every single unit is rigorously factory-tested to a 7.5-ton load (150% of its rated capacity) before it ever leaves the facility.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Superior Efficiency: Equipped with high-performance needle bearings on the load pinion and a precision gear system to drastically reduce the manual pulling force required (only 39 kgf).
• Extended 10m Reach: Utilizes a specialized, heavy-duty alloy steel load chain built specifically to withstand severe industrial conditions over a 10-meter drop.
• Fail-Safe Braking: Features a highly reliable automatic double-pawl braking system that ensures the load is locked and held securely at any height.
• Precision Engineering: Manufactured entirely in Japan using premium-grade materials, ensuring long-term durability under rigorous daily use.
• Enhanced Safety Testing: Every unit is factory-tested to 150% of its rated capacity (7.5 Ton test load) to guarantee flawless structural integrity before use.
• Forged Steel Hooks: The top and bottom hooks feature a secure bump to prevent slipping and are engineered to open gradually under extreme overload rather than snapping unexpectedly.
• Flexible Operation: The specialized chain guide attached to the handrail cover allows the hoist to be operated safely from an angle of up to 45 degrees.
