• Greater safety due to being able to operate the hoist outside of the danger zone.

Yalelift 360 Chain Hoist Advantages

The versatility of the 360° hand wheel cover is definitely the main selling point of this chain block range. Lifting equipment safety is a big concern for any business, so being able to put operators out of harm’s way during heavy duty manoeuvres makes a major difference. This even applies if they need to be positioned overhead, rather than below the load itself. Almost any hoist configuration is taken into account thanks to this design decision. 

The perks of this feature go hand in hand with the overall seamlessness of this hoist’s operation. You can be sure that the chain will not snag or stutter, nor the load drop suddenly or tilt erratically. These same benefits will be present whether you pick the entry level 500kg payload 360 chain hoist, or the largest unit with a 20-tonne safe weight limit to its name.
