Stuart Rush Hoists, Parts & Lifting Equipment

Stuart Rush represents the next evolution of some of the most widely used lifting equipment in the industry, including the Lodestar, the Shopstar, and other proven product lines trusted for generations.

Formed as part of a broader industry transition, Stuart Rush now manufactures select product lines that continue to be built, supported, and serviced just as they have been. The same hoists and parts you rely on are still available, your existing equipment remains fully supported, and you can continue purchasing, servicing, and ordering parts through Ace as usual.

Stuart Rush Transition: What It Means For CM, Coffing, and Budgit Hoist Owners

Electric Chain Hoists

Stuart Rush offerings include the CM Lodestar, Lodestar XL, ShopStar, Prostar, Valustar, Powerstar, Coffing EC and JLC, and Chester SLE.

The CM Lodestar and Lodestar XL are widely known for their durability and long service life in demanding environments, making them a go-to choice for industrial applications. For lighter-duty or more portable needs, models like the ShopStar and Prostar offer compact, cost-effective solutions that are easy to handle and install.

When balancing performance and value, the Coffing JLC stands out as a reliable option that delivers strong capability without overbuilding for the application.

Manual Hoists (Chain Falls)

The Cyclone is widely recognized as a benchmark in manual hoists, combining efficiency, durability, and ease of use. Its design allows operators to lift heavy loads with minimal effort while maintaining long-term reliability.

Options like the Chester Zephyr hand hoist provide dependable performance with rugged construction and efficient operation, making them a reliable choice for a wide range of manual lifting applications.

Lever Hoists, Pullers & Come-Alongs

The CM Series 640 Puller is a highly versatile manual tool designed for pulling, lifting, dragging, and tensioning applications in demanding environments.

Built for reliability and control, the 640 features a Weston-type automatic braking system for positive load holding, a hardened Hoistaloy steel load chain for extended wear life, and smooth one-hand operation that allows operators to work efficiently with minimal effort.

Air Hoists

The ShopAir is often used in lighter-duty or workstation applications, while the Budgit 2220 and 6000 are designed for heavier industrial use with higher capacities and more demanding cycles. The Chester SLA offers a balance of performance and durability across a wide range of applications.

With smooth load control, high operating speeds, and no risk of motor overheating, air hoists are a strong fit for production settings, maintenance work, and facilities that already have compressed air systems in place.

Trolleys (Manual & Powered)

Stuart Rush trolleys include CM Series 635, CM Motorized Universal, CM Railstar (Series 632), Chester CPT, Budgit, and Coffing models (VT, MT, CTA), and are designed to support a wide range of beam sizes, capacities, and application requirements.

Manual options provide a simple and reliable way to position loads, while motorized trolleys allow for controlled, powered movement across the beam. With configurations available for both hook-mounted and lug-mounted hoists, these trolleys offer flexibility for everything from light-duty workstations to heavy industrial lifting systems.

Chain & Rigging

Stuart Rush offerings include a wide range of chain, including CM hoist chain, buoy chain, and Grade 80 and 100 rigging chain, all designed for strength, durability, and reliable performance in lifting applications.

Additional options such as Grade 70 transport chain, Grade 30 proof coil chain, Grade 43 high-test chain, and select rigging components like master links, assemblies, and turnbuckles provide flexibility across a variety of lifting, securing, and material handling needs.
