The Yale D85 pull lift is the original Yale ratchet lever hoist. It is the only hoist which can be referred to as a true pull-lift.

There are 2 models here, essentially the same. However the D85 has a link chain and the C85 has a roller chain.

Yale D85 Pull lift & C85 Features

The robust construction of these  hoists / pull lifts include the hand lever, lower block and housing which are all manufactured from high tensile white malleable cast iron. The load sheave is made from graphite cast iron. Due to the ruggedness of the materials used during the manufacturing process the D85 ratchet hoist / pull lift is perfectly suited to heavy duty applications.

It is ideal for pipe setting, securing loads and spotting for example.  The D85 hoist is commonly used in mining, fabrication work, ship building, construction and maintenance as well as in the rail industry.

The malleable cast iron housing cover is enclosed to provide added protection.

The graphite cast iron load sheave has been precision machined with pockets. This is to ensure the chain locates correctly and precisely on each and every movement. What’s more the accuracy of the fit ensures durability of the load chain.

Capabilities of the C85 & D85 Lever Hoists

The Yale C85 with the roller chain is perfect for use in overhead line work. It is commonly utilised throughout the electricity supply industry. The roller chain sprocket has been manufactured from chromium molybdenum steel and heat treated. The teeth have been precision machined so you can be assured of smooth operation.

Both the D85 Pull lift and the Yale C85 are available with lifting capacities up to 10000kg. Further more they can be equipped with a couple of optional extras. A factory pre-set slip clutch can be added to provide overload protection. Free chaining systems can also be added as an optional extra. For the D85 we can also supply adjustable end stops for the chain if needed. Please notify us at the time of ordering if you require any of these extras.
