Description
Yale AYH Clevis Eye Mountings are purpose-built accessories for hydraulic applications where a pivoting or articulated cylinder installation is required. They are screwed directly onto either the piston rod or the cylinder base, allowing the hydraulic cylinder to rotate slightly during operation and compensate for angular movement, misalignment, or structural flex.
In many lifting, jacking, or positioning applications, rigid mounting can introduce side loads that reduce cylinder life and compromise safety. AYH clevis eye mountings solve this problem by allowing controlled pivoting, ensuring axial load transfer and protecting both the cylinder and the surrounding structure.
Manufactured to Yale?s exacting standards, these clevis eyes are machined from high-strength steel and designed to integrate seamlessly with Yale YH series hydraulic cylinders. Each model is precisely threaded for direct compatibility and uses a retainer nut in accordance with DIN 981, ensuring secure fixing under heavy load conditions.
AYH clevis mountings are available in variants for cylinder base mounting (AYH-?-1) and piston mounting (AYH-?-2), giving engineers flexibility when designing lifting frames, linkages, articulated supports, or mobile hydraulic systems. Typical applications include industrial lifting systems, steel construction, maintenance jigs, test rigs, and heavy machinery positioning where angular movement cannot be avoided.
By reducing bending forces and side loading, AYH clevis eye mountings help extend cylinder service life, improve operational smoothness, and increase overall system reliability.
