Pulling Hoists

Wire-rope pulling hoists for lifting, pulling and rigging over long rope lengths in construction, forestry and installation work.
4 products

How to choose

What it is for

  1. Wire-rope pulling hoist for long distances and horizontal/inclined pulling.
  2. Construction, forestry, cable pulling, recovery.
  3. Vertical lifting with unlimited rope length.

Check before you choose

  • Pull capacity (lifting vs. pulling rating differ)
  • Rope length and diameter
  • Anchor point

Not suitable for

  • High-frequency lifting

What we will ask you before recommending a model

Wire-rope pulling hoist Technical check — we confirm a few parameters and compatibility with you before the order.
  1. Required force; vertical or horizontal; slope; friction; rope length; anchor point; path; stroke? For horizontal pulling the force is not equal to the mass — include friction, slope and any pulleys.

Typical mistakes to avoid

  • Horizontal pulling force ≠ mass: include friction, slope and pulleys.

Helpful to have ready: Mass · Slope · Surface · Distance · Anchor point · Route sketch

Wire-rope pulling hoists

A pulling hoist (grip hoist) walks along its own wire rope, so the working distance is limited only by the rope — standard equipment for construction, forestry, installation and recovery work. The RPDS range covers 800 kg, 1600 kg, 3200 kg and 5400 kg, each supplied with 20 m of rope.

For lifting and tensioning at shorter range a lever hoist is handier; for vertical lifting from a fixed point, a chain block. Contact us with the load and pulling distance and we will size the hoist and rope.

Frequently asked questions

How does a pulling hoist differ from a winch?

The rope passes through the machine, gripped and advanced by internal jaws, instead of winding onto a drum — so pull length is set by the rope, not drum capacity, and the force stays constant over the whole distance.

Can pulling hoists lift as well as pull?

Yes — with the appropriate rigging they lift, lower and tension in any orientation. Observe the rated capacity for the configuration and use the shear-pin overload protection as designed.

Can I use longer ropes than the supplied 20 m?

Yes, the working length is set by the rope — longer ropes are available on request. State the required distance in the enquiry and we will quote the hoist with the matching rope length.

How quickly can a pulling hoist be delivered?

Request a quote on the product page with capacity and rope length and we will confirm availability, the current lead time and the delivery cost for your location.
