Hand chain hoists for lifting, lowering, tensioning and pulling

In 1877 Linus Yale produced the first spur geared hand chain hoist with incorporated Weston screw-and-disc type load break. This principle is still used in nearly all manual hoists. Our product range starting from our top model Yalelift 360 to our well established VS and its successer VSplus offers you the optimal solution for your application problem!

All parts of the load brake are made of high quality materials and are protected against corrosion. Yale exclusively uses asbestos free friction discs in all their hoists. The surface protected zinc plated alloy steel chains fulfil all the requirements of national and international standards and regulations. In accordance with safety regulations, the chain stops are designed to withstand double the rated capacity to ensure the chain does not unintentionally run free. The drop forged load and suspension hooks that yield under overload instead of breaking, are made of high tensile steel and are standard for all Yale hoists.

The hooks are fitted with robust safety latches and rotate 360°. Every Yale ratchet lever hoist is factory tested with overload. The units are supplied with a test certificate showing the serial-No. Operating instructions which contain an EC declaration of conformity are also attached to each unit.
