The Allen Takedown Gambrel and Hoist 500lbs (Model AL7244) is a portable, heavy-duty manual lifting system engineered for processing game in the field or at camp. Featuring a collapsible steel frame, this kit solves the storage and transport challenges of traditional rigid gambrels by folding down into a compact size that easily fits into a backpack or hunting vehicle. With a rated weight capacity of 500 lbs (approximately 226.8 kg), it utilizes a mechanical block-and-tackle pulley system to multiply your lifting force, significantly reducing the physical effort required to hoist heavy game for skinning, field dressing, and butchering.

Key Features:

• Collapsible Takedown Design: The heavy-duty steel gambrel can be quickly disassembled, making it highly compact and easy to pack for remote hunting trips.
• Mechanical Advantage Pulley System: Features cast metal pulleys that create a block-and-tackle system, minimizing the physical strength needed to lift heavy carcasses.
• Generous Rope Length: Includes 38 feet (approximately 11.6 metres) of durable 1/4-inch (approximately 6.35 mm) diameter rope to accommodate high hanging branches or gantry frames.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Made from high-strength steel with a protective finish to resist corrosion and wear during outdoor use.
• 18-Inch Gambrel: The 18-inch (approximately 45.7 cm) width provides a stable and secure spread for the animal's hind legs, ensuring a safe and hygienic platform for meat processing.

Who It's For:

The Allen Takedown Gambrel and Hoist is designed specifically for Australian hunters who require a reliable, portable solution for processing game in remote outdoor environments. With its 226.8 kg capacity, it is ideally suited for handling common Australian game and invasive species, including medium-to-large feral pigs, wild goats, fallow deer, chital deer, and smaller red deer. Because it is a 100% manual mechanical system, it requires no electricity, making compliance with Australian 240V power standards or electrical safety certifications completely irrelevant. This makes it an essential tool for back-country hunters, 4WD tourers, and station owners who need to safely hang and dress meat off the ground far from mains power.
