Capacity: 3 Tons (6,000 lbs) | Lift: 10' | Speed: 2-Speed | Duty Class: H4

Professional Overview

The Lodestar RT-2 is built for high-cycle applications where reliability is non-negotiable. The dual-speed configuration allows operators to toggle between a fast 5.5 FPM for productivity and a slow 1.75 FPM "creep speed" for precise load spotting and fragile assemblies. Housed in a rugged, lightweight aluminum alloy body, this hoist features a life-lubricated gearbox and a redundant braking system, ensuring it meets the rigorous H4 duty cycle requirements.
