CM LODESTAR Electric Chain Hoist - 10

The CM Lodestar® Electric Chain Hoist by John Sakash—manufactured by Columbus McKinnon and offered by Material Flow—is the gold standard for high-performance, low-maintenance lifting in demanding industrial environments. Designed with precision and durability in mind, the Lodestar features a heavy-duty motor, DC brake, and lifetime grease-lubricated helical gearbox for a longer, smoother service life.

Its 5-pocket liftwheel reduces chain wear and delivers quieter operation, while the zinc-plated load chain resists corrosion in harsh environments. Maintenance is simplified thanks to easy access control panels and internal components, minimizing downtime and increasing productivity.

Perfect for applications requiring high duty cycles, the CM Lodestar is known for its quiet performance, environmentally friendly design, and enhanced safety features. A fabric chain container is included for lifts up to 20 ft., with a metal container option available.
