Pilewind Hoist
The pilewind hoist by Thern Stage Equipment is a compact, economical, and zero-fleet motorized rigging solution.
Product Description
Also known as a “yo-yo” hoist because a steel wire enters the single-groove drum and resembles a yo-yo, our pilewind hoist easily lifts stage scenery, curtains, lighting, audio, and other items. The multi-direction line feed allows for winch placement almost anywhere within the system and can eliminate the need for head blocks. This pilewind hoist can be coupled with any of our control offerings to provide safe and repeatable operation.
Made to last, our components are comprised of durable, heavy-duty materials. We guarantee consistent service life for your Thern Stage Equipment pilewind hoist by offering a two-year limited warranty to make sure that you’re 100% satisfied.
