TCS High Speed Air Powered Hoist

Faster now comes standard.

Sometimes a job requires ultra-high lifting speeds and 100% duty ratings. With speeds up to 112 fpm at full capacity, the TCS offers blazing performance while still providing quiet operation and optimal fine feathering to control your load position. Fast, quiet, and precise—that’s an unbeatable combination.

Compact, Lightweight Design

Easy to operate, transport, and store, the TCS air hoist is also engineered to be extremely compact and lightweight thanks to its durable cast aluminum body.

Extremely Fast Lifting

Time is money. For applications where speed is critical, the TCS air hoist gives you the ability to get things done faster and be more productive.

Adjustable Speeds

Increase your production capabilities with the TCS air hoist’s adjustable lifting and lowering speeds.

Very Fine Feathering Control

The spring-loaded, multi-vane motor design lets you precisely control, place and position a load exactly where you need it. Gradually control the lift with very fine feathering movements either up or down.

Unlimited Duty Cycle

The TCS air hoist is built for long and demanding shifts. With its unlimited duty cycle, you can continually operate the hoist without worrying about damage from too many starts per hour.
