FER2 Food Grade Electric Chain Hoist

Work clean with confidence.

For lifting applications in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries—where maintaining a pristine environment is critical—the FER2 food-grade electric chain hoist is the one to choose. FDA approved food-grade lubricants used on the load chain and in the gearbox are NSF H1 compliant for safe use in any facility where incidental contact with product is a concern. The standard model also features white epoxy paint, stainless steel /nickel-plated hardware, and a nickel-plated load chain, making the FER2 the perfect choice for contaminant-controlled or corrosive processing environments.

Corrosion-Resistant Nickel-Plated Load Chain

The standard grade 80 nickel-plated load chain on Kito’s electric food-grade hoist is engineered to stand up to corrosion in environments where damp air or steam are prevalent.

Chip-Resistant Epoxy Paint

Avoid contaminants from your lifting equipment. The white, chip-resistant epoxy paint on the FER2 hoist body protects you from debris that could contaminate your processing facility.
