A hoist is a device used to help with the handling, lifting and lowering of heavy objects or loads. A hoist provides a safe and convenient way of moving items that are too heavy to move by hand.RS offer a range of high-quality lifting equipment hoists from leading brands including Yale and Eclipse.

### What are the different types of equipment hoists?

There are two main types of a hoist, a manual hoist or a powered hoist:**Manual Hoists** – Manual chain hoists are available in two different types, they can be ratchet operated or hand-operated. Manual lifting hoists use two chains, one chain supports the load and the other chain is used to control the lifting and lowering of the load. A ratchet or lever-actuated hoist works by cranking the ratchet lever up and down to manoeuvre the load.**Powered Hoists** - Electric chain hoists are controlled by either a single-phase 240 V ac or three-phase 415 V ac power supply. Electric chain hoists offer faster lifting speeds, a wider range of lifting capacity and are typically controlled by a pendant control station.

### Important things to consider when choosing lifting equipment
