Manual Chain Hoist 6000 lb Capacity
The Dayton 1VW63 is a manual chain hoist built for lifting loads up to 6000 lb with a 20 ft lift height. It uses a Grade 80 alloy steel chain measuring 41 1/2 ft in total length. A double disc Weston-style brake is included for load control. The hook-mounted design requires no trolley and features a safety latch on the lifting hook.
Upgrade From Lower Capacity Hoists
This model replaces lighter-duty hoists when the job demands a 6000 lb maximum lifting capacity and a 20 ft vertical reach. The jump is worth it when the load weight exceeds the rating of smaller units or when the required lift height is longer than shorter-chain alternatives provide. The 21 1/4 in headroom fits many overhead beam installations.
Suits Rigging and Maintenance Crews
This hoist suits rigging teams, maintenance departments and workshops that need portable, hook-mounted lifting without powered equipment. It is not for applications requiring motorised operation, trolley travel along a beam, or lifting capacities above 6000 lb. Buyers needing powered lifting or higher capacities should look at other product types.

Questions about this item
What headroom clearance does the 6000 lb hoist require?
The unit needs 21 1/4 in of vertical space between the mounting point and the load hook when fully raised.
How is the double disc Weston-style brake engaged during installation?
The brake is internal and self-activating; the critical step is confirming the hand chain pulls freely in both directions before applying any load.
When should the Grade 80 alloy steel chain be replaced?
Inspect the 41 1/2 ft chain regularly and replace it if any link shows stretching, cracks, gouges or wear beyond the Grade 80 limits.
