CM Tornado 360° Columbus McKinnon has expanded its CM Tornado 360° line of ratchet lever hoists, which feature a fold-out, revolving lever handle designed to increase worker productivity and reduce repetitive wrist motions. The hoists also have double-reduction gearing and high-quality bearings that decrease pull force by as much as 30 percent, minimizing operator fatigue. The lightweight aluminum housing and powder-coated finish make the hoists suitable for use in harsh environments. 

What's new? Hoists with 3- and 6-ton capacities; a 6-ton model is shown. They join models with 1,500 pounds and 3,000 pounds of lifting capacity.

Benefits More options for lifting, positioning and pulling heavy loads.
