The Yale YCC-201 is a hydraulic chain cutter designed for cutting high-tensile, grade 10 chains up to a material diameter of 13 mm. The open design allows easy positioning of the chain. Yale specifies a built-in standard hydraulic cylinder, single-acting with spring return, rated for 700 bar maximum operating pressure with a maximum cutting force of 23 t.

Hydraulic chain cutter for grade 10 chain up to 13 mm

Yale documentation states the YCC-201 can be operated using standard hand or motor pumps. The recommended pump is the PY-04/2/5/2 M electric power pack; the cutter also runs from the PAY-6 mini air-driven pump or HPS-2/0.7 A hand pump. Both through-hardened cutting blades are identical in construction, can be re-sharpened, and are easy to remove for replacement.

Suitable Applications

Per Yale: cutting high-tensile grade 10 chains up to 13 mm diameter. Yale supplies the cutter ready to use including the CFY-1 female coupler half.

Tools, pumps and hoses must share pressure rating and coupler type. Confirm all three before ordering rather than discovering the mismatch on site.
