What is a Chain Lever Hoist?

A chain lever hoist, also known as a ratchet hoist or come-along, is a manual device used to lift, lower, or pull heavy objects by pulling on a hand lever. Unlike electric hoists, it doesn’t require a power source and is perfect for tight spaces, vertical or horizontal pulling, and rigging tasks where control is critical.
