• Textile chain bag for neat chain storage and safer site housekeeping.

Use Cases

• Short-term lifts for events, stage rigging, and temporary installations.
• Construction and maintenance tasks where compact equipment and redundant safety are required.
• Situations demanding controlled, precise lifting of asymmetrical or complex loads.
