Yale makes a comprehensive range of lifting gear which goes far beyond manual chain blocks and encompasses everything from pullers and lever hoists to webbing and safety accessories. 

Core Features of Yalelift 360 ATEX Chain Blocks

• ATEX rated, ll 3 GD c llB T5 (zone 2/22) 
• Specially coated unit, trolley, top and bottom hooks. 
• Load chain galvanic, zinc plated and a stainless steel hand chain. 
• Trolley buffers. 
• Plain roller special coated. 
• Cooling element in brake system. 

Why Choose Yalelift ATEX Chain Blocks?

With any lifting application, safety should be a concern. This is multiplied further when taking into account potentially explosive atmospheres. A standard manual hoist can create friction in its brakes and sparks in its chains, which is obviously not ideal. The ATEX-compliant range from Yale is protected against this kind of hazard. 

A coating applied to the hoist and trolley assembly allows for seamless manoeuvring to take place with lower chance of sparking. The brakes are cooled to address issues caused by overheating. Trolley buffers prevent the hoist from coming to a clattering stop, which improves stability and limits metal-on-metal strikes which also generate sparks. 

Nothing has been left to chance, so while basic protection is promised by this range, it should give you peace of mind. 

Yalelift 360 ITP & ITG Chain Block Capacities & Other Options

As with many other chain blocks, the entry level units in this range come with safe working load limits of 500kg. This is increased incrementally as the size of each hoist rises, with the largest of the ITP and ITG models both coming with 10 tonnes of load bearing capacity. 

The inclusion of the 360 hand control unit gives these hoists added versatility and practicality. Operators can station themselves out of the way of the payload, even handling its movement from overhead. This further ensures safety for everyday use, even before the ATEX rating is taken into account. 

Take a look at our chain hoists from Tiger, GT and Kito for other models that are just as sturdy, without the spark-resistant design features.
