The Jet AL-100 is a 1.5-ton (3,000 lb) manual chain hoist with an aluminum body that resists corrosion and keeps the unit lighter than steel-bodied hoists of the same capacity. It uses a Weston-style brake with dual pawls and cast steel safety latches, and the sealed housing is meant to shrug off dust and weather. The extra-large hand chain opening makes pulling easier when you are working overhead or at an awkward angle. It suits shop, farm and jobsite users who want a durable general-purpose hoist without paying for a powered unit.

Owners of Jet manual hoists generally describe them as solid, smooth-pulling tools that hold up in shop and farm use. Complaints tend to focus on chain management and the effort of long lifts rather than on the brake or hooks.
The Jet AL-100 is a manual chain hoist with a lifting capacity of 1.5 tons (3,000 lb). It has a lift height of 90 feet. The body is aluminum, which resists corrosion.
It uses a Grade 100, heat-treated, zinc-plated load chain. Safety is handled by cast steel safety latches and a dual pawl Weston brake. The housing is sealed to protect the internal parts from the elements.
The hand chain opening is extra large, which makes the chain easier to pull. Inspect the hoist before each use for damage or wear. Check the chain for wear, and check the brake function and safety latches.
