Ongoing supply chain disruptions and the discontinuation of several legacy hoist models have created challenges across the lifting industry, forcing distributors and end users to seek reliable alternatives. All Material Handling, Inc. (AMH) has responded by ensuring immediate availability of two proven manual hoist solutions designed to meet a wide range of lifting requirements without compromise.

AMH currently offers two high-quality manual hoist lines, covering capacities from ½ ton to 30 tons, providing dependable options for nearly any application and budget.

AMH MA Hoist

The AMH MA Hoist is a premium manual chain hoist available in capacities from ½ ton through 30 tons, a broader range than many legacy brands currently support. The MA Hoist features Made-in-USA precision Grade 80 load chain, assembled and tested in the United States, and is engineered for durability while remaining lightweight and easy to operate. AMH’s website features a USA Content Calculator that shows the customer the value of the USA content in the hoist.

The hoist’s robust construction allows it to withstand daily use in harsh industrial environments. Standard lift lengths are available, with custom configurations offered to meet specific job requirements.

Key features include:

• Weston-style mechanical load brake with self-adjusting double pawls
• Sealed ball bearings on the chain wheel for improved efficiency and serviceability
• Self-adjusting, double-pawl disc-type mechanical load brake for positive load control
• Double roller guide for consistent load-chain tracking
• Cast latches for more reliability
• Optional overload protection via a one-directional clutch that slips only in the lifting direction
• Compliance with ASME/ANSI B30.16, OSHA, and NASA-STD-8719.9
• ATEX rated and certified for limited use in hazardous environments

Unlike many competitors that offer only one-year coverage, the AMH MA Hoist is backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty. All units are in stock and ready to ship from one of AMH’s four strategically located U.S. warehouses.

Badger Hoist

The Badger Hoist line delivers high-quality performance at a competitive price point and is available in capacities from ½ ton to 10 tons. Designed as part of AMH’s value-focused Badger product family, these hoists are built more robustly than many comparable legacy models to better withstand demanding daily use.

Badger Hoists feature zinc-plated Grade 80 load chain for enhanced corrosion protection and are proof tested to ensure reliable performance. Standard lift lengths are available, with custom configurations offered to meet specific job requirements.

Additional benefits include:

• Lifetime Limited Warranty
• Cast latches for more reliability
• Replacement parts fully stocked and ready to ship, ensuring long-term serviceability
• Optional overload protection via a one-directional clutch that slips only in the lifting direction
• Compliance with ASME/ANSI B30.16, OSHA, and NASA-STD-8719.

Badger Hoists are available for immediate shipment, helping distributors and end users avoid costly downtime.

“At AMH, we take pride in delivering reliable lifting solutions with a personal touch,” said Peter Brettner, President of AMH. “When customers contact us, they speak directly with knowledgeable, service-driven representatives who understand their applications and respond quickly.”
