Yale AYS load spreading plates are accessories for the YS cylinder range that provide a wider footprint to prevent slim cylinders from falling over or sinking into the ground during lifting operations. Three sizes: AYS-101 (10 t, fits YS-10), AYS-151 (15 t, fits YS-15), and AYS-231 (23 t, fits YS-23). Yale specifies a robust steel design with carrying handle.
Stabilises Yale YS cylinders on soft or uneven surfaces
Yale describes the load spreading plates as recommended when slim cylinders are used for lifting operations. They protect the cylinders from falling over and sinking into the ground. Yale specifies a robust steel design with carrying handle.
Suitable Applications
Per Yale: lifting operations on soft or uneven surfaces where the cylinder needs lateral stability. The plates also reduce surface pressure under the cylinder, preventing damage to soft surfaces.
Key Features
- Wider Footprint than Cylinder Base: stabilises the cylinder during lifting.
- Robust Steel Construction: with carrying handle.
- Three Capacities: AYS-101 (10 t), AYS-151 (15 t), AYS-231 (23 t).
- Each Weighs 10.5 kg: consistent weight across all three capacities.
