Yale AYH clevis eye mountings are pivoting mounts that screw onto the piston and base of YH double-acting cylinders for applications where mounting conditions require cylinder pivoting. Three capacity sizes cover the YH-5, YH-10 and YH-20 ranges, each with both a base-mount variant (-1) and a piston-mount variant (-2).
Pivoting mounts for Yale YH double-acting cylinders
Yale states the clevis eye mountings are screwed onto the piston and bottom of the hydraulic cylinder in cases where mounting conditions require pivoting of the cylinder. Each capacity is available in two variants: base mount (-1) and piston mount (-2).
Suitable Applications
Per Yale: applications requiring the cylinder to pivot during operation. Yale designates the AYH specifically for YH cylinders (double-acting universal).

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: AYH-...-1 or AYH-...-2?
Yale's designation: -1 for cylinder base mounting, -2 for piston mounting. For each YH cylinder you typically need both - one of each per pivoting installation.
Q: Does the AYH fit YS cylinders?
Yale designates the AYH range specifically for YH (double-acting) cylinders. For YS cylinder mounting, use the AYP threaded flange range.
Q: Is a retainer nut included?
Yes. Yale specifies a DIN 981 retainer nut for the AYH-5-1, AYH-5-2, AYH-10-1, and AYH-20-1 variants.
