The CM Hurricane 360 Hand Chain Hoist is one of the latest and greatest innovations from Columbus McKinnon. Designed as a spin-off from the legendary patented CM Hurricane 360 Chain Hoist (the first chain hoist to feature a 360-degree rotation of the hand chain), but with a keen focus on being lightweight and small, so mini that it fits in nearly every toolbox, so light that you can rest it in the palm of your hand and so smooth-running that you won't stop using your new CM Mini 360 Chain Block! Manufactured with safety in mind, the unit allows the operator to position the hand chain in any direction of rotation through 360-degrees meaning that the operator can stand at a safe angle or location away from the load, this avoids the common snatching of the hand chain and wear that occurs when trying to do this with a standard chain hoist.

Upgrading The Hand Chain Hoists You Know: Precisely machined from die-cast aluminum, the unit features large upper and lower hooks fitted with heavy-duty spring-loaded safety catches. Fitted with galvanized load chain and a hand chain with a bright zinc finish combined with the factor that the complete unit is so compact, all of the internal parts are protected and therefore this hoist is perfect for use outside in harsh environments.

Innovation doesn't stop there: The CM Mini Hand Chain Hoist also features a compliant double-pawl load brake system that enables the load to be held in any position (meaning you can use the hoist horizontally or in any direction- and then thanks to the 360-rotating chain guide, you can operate it from any position). Maximum safety at all times, and CM means it too! This hoist features forged lifting and load hooks made from age-resistant high-alloy heat-treated steel, which flexes when overloaded (as opposed to simply snapping as many other hoists do on the market). In addition, both hooks are rotatable 360-degrees. The unit is ideal for use at home and in factories, warehouses, agriculture, and for small equipment installs. The anti-corrosive properties make it ideal for use in chemical and marine environments.

WHAT WE THINK OF THE CM Mini 360 HAND CHAIN HOIST:

The operation of this brand-new revolutionary chain hoist really is superb! We have already had the pleasure of testing one at LES and we can proudly tell you it's awesome to use. It takes the build and quality of the Tornado 360 lever hoist (in our opinion; the best lever hoist on the market!) combined with the innovation of the CM Mini 360 and jam-packed into this tiny little super-smooth-running 'toolbox style' Manual Chain Hoist. In this product category, there is no better hoist on the market. The CM Mini 360 is truly amazing value for money.
