All Material Handling (AMH)

All Material Handling (AMH) Hoists, Trolleys & Rigging Hardware

When you need reliable manual lifting solutions without the premium price tag of European brands, All Material Handling (AMH) is the industry standard. AMH specializes in manual chain hoists, lever pullers, and beam trolleys designed to withstand the rigors of construction, mining, and industrial maintenance.

Holloway Houston Inc. (HHI) serves as a major stocking distributor for AMH. Our inventory includes over 600 SKUs, ranging from compact 0.5 Ton maintenance hoists to heavy-duty 30 Ton lifting blocks. We also stock the specialized Overload Protected and Self-Locking models that many safety-critical job sites now require.

The AMH Product Lineup

1. MA-Series Manual Chain Hoists The workhorse of the AMH line. These hoists feature a rugged steel construction and premium Grade 80 load chain.

• Standard Models : Reliable lifting for general applications.
• Overload Protection (-V) : Many models in our list end with "V" (e.g., MA010-10-08UV). These units feature a slip clutch mechanism that prevents the operator from lifting loads beyond the rated capacity, saving the hoist from structural damage.
• Self-Locking Hooks (-L): Models ending in "L" feature Self-Locking Hooks instead of standard latch hooks. These hooks automatically close and lock under load, preventing accidental disengagement.
• Capacities : Stocking 0.5 Ton to 30 Ton.
• Lift Lengths : Available in standard 10', 15', and 20' lifts, with custom chain lengths available upon request.

2. LA-Series Lever Hoists (Come-A-Longs) Designed for pulling, dragging, and stretching in tight spaces.

• Free Chaining : The LA-Series features a state-of-the-art free chaining mechanism that allows for quick take-up of slack chain when not under load.
• Compact Design : Ideal for utility work and pipe alignment where handle clearance is limited.
• Capacities : Stocking 0.8 Ton to 9 Ton.

3. Trolleys & Beam Clamps Turn your stationary hoist into a traveling crane.

• PT & GT Trolleys : Push Trolleys (PT) for light loads and Geared Trolleys (GT) for precise positioning of heavy loads.
• BC & BCD Clamps : Beam clamps provide a quick, portable anchor point for hoists on I-beams.

4. Grade 100 Rigging Hardware AMH manufactures high-quality alloy steel components.

• Hooks : Eye hooks, Clevis Grab Hooks (Grade 100), and Self-Locking Swivel hooks.
• Lifting Clamps (LC) : Vertical and horizontal plate clamps for handling steel sheets.
