The GPM electric hoist is a new, light but powerful hoist offered by GIS. This is a high quality electric chain hoist from a name you can trust.

The new profile chain carries heavier loads with a lower wear rate, it is grade 8 and phosphate coated and is 7% smaller in diameter than round steel chain. Because of the smaller chain the drive mechanism can be reduced in size too, this in turn makes the hoist even lighter at just 14kg.

Available in 125 & 250 kg capacities this compact hoist is quick and easy to use with easy maintenance.
