Maximize your lifting efficiency with the Harrington SEM Electric Chain Hoist, now available for rent from LGH. Designed to meet the specific needs of sheet metal and HVAC contractors, the SEM Electric Hoist offers a perfect combination of lightweight design and robust lifting capacity.

The Harrington SEM Hoist is available in two models: the SEM003L, with a capacity of 500 lbs (1/4 ton), and the SEM005C, which can handle up to 1,000 lbs (1/2 ton). Despite their impressive lifting capabilities, these hoists remain remarkably lightweight. The 1/2 ton model, with a 10-foot height of lift, weighs only 35 lbs. This makes it an excellent alternative to manual hand chain hoists and significantly reduces the physical strain on workers.

One of the standout features of the SEM Electric Hoist is its adjustable pendant length, which enhances worksite safety by allowing operators to maintain a safe distance from the load. The hoist operates on a standard 110-volt, 3-pronged power supply, ensuring easy and convenient use on any job site. Additionally, the option for a chain bag helps keep the workspace organized and efficient. With a 30-minute duty cycle, the SEM Electric Hoist provides reliable performance for various tasks, from lifting HVAC units to installing ductwork in tight spaces.

Renting from LGH means peace of mind, because we ensure that every piece of equipment is certified and ready for immediate use. For sheet metal and HVAC contractors looking to outperform the competition, the Harrington SEM Electric Chain Hoist is the perfect solution.
