The SecureFix Direct 0.5 Ton Chain Block and Tackle is designed for workshop professionals, mechanics, and industrial operators who require a reliable and portable lifting solution for loads up to 500KG. Its primary benefit is the combination of lightweight steel construction and high-durability, heat-treated components, ensuring both ease of transport and robust performance under load; however, users should note that it is limited to a 3-metre vertical lift capacity, making it unsuitable for extremely high-clearance lifting tasks.

The maximum safe working load is 0.5 Ton, which is equivalent to 500KG.
Yes, every unit is supplied with an official test certificate confirming it meets BS EN 13157: 2004+A1: 2009 standards.
No, the device is factory-configured for a 3-metre lift; modifying the chain can compromise safety and void the certification.
Store it in a clean, dry location protected from moisture to prevent rust, preferably hanging or placed on a stable surface.
The minimum distance between the top and bottom hooks is 290MM.
Check the chain guide for debris or kinks; ensure the chain is properly aligned with the sprocket.
Verify the load weight does not exceed the 0.5 Ton (500KG) limit and ensure there are no obstructions interfering with the load path.
Inspect the safety latch on the drop-forged hook for obstructions or spring failure; clean any dirt that prevents the latch from seating.
To ensure longevity and safety, perform a visual inspection of the load chain and hooks before every use. Check for any signs of chain deformation or rust. Always ensure the hook is fully seated in the support structure to prevent slippage. When storing, keep the device in a dry, ventilated area to prevent corrosion of the metal components. Periodically lubricate the load chain to maintain smooth operation through the chain guide. Ensure that the load is always lifted vertically to avoid side-loading, which can compromise the integrity of the chain and the safety hooks.
