ChainMaster – 2000kg, D8+, DC – 25m

The CHAINMASTER 2 Ton D8+ single-chain hoist is a professional electric chain hoist designed for heavy-duty lifting applications in the entertainment and event industry. It is commonly used for lifting trusses, lighting systems, LED walls, and audio equipment in concert venues, theatres, festivals, and touring productions.
The hoist has a Working Load Limit (WLL) of 2000 kg and operates with a single chain configuration. It is classified according to the D8+ standard, meaning it is equipped with two independent DC brakes for increased safety. Unlike standard D8 motors, a D8+ hoist is allowed to hold loads above people without requiring a secondary safety device, although moving loads above people is still not permitted under D8+ regulations.
Key features of the Chainmaster 2 Ton D8+ include:
- 2000 kg lifting capacity
- Single-chain operation
- Dual DC fail-safe brake system
- 4 m/min lifting speed
- Quiet and compact design
- Overload protection through a friction clutch
- Suitable for both fixed installations and touring applications
- Can be used in standard or climbing position
- Professional DIN EN 818-7 load chain
The motor is built with a durable aluminium housing and is designed specifically for the demanding conditions of live entertainment productions. The compact construction and reliable braking system make it a widely trusted solution in professional rigging environments.
