Description
AYS Load-Spreading Plates are essential accessories for Yale YS-series hydraulic cylinders, designed to enhance stability and prevent cylinders from tipping or sinking during heavy lifting operations. Made from robust steel, these plates distribute the load evenly over a larger surface area, allowing safe lifting even on soft, uneven, or fragile surfaces.
Load-spreading plates are particularly useful when using slim or compact cylinders that could otherwise destabilise under heavy loads. They are ideal for industrial, civil engineering, and shipbuilding applications, where large machinery, containers, structural steel, or modules must be lifted safely and efficiently. Each plate is fitted with a carrying handle for easy transport and positioning on site.
When combined with a cylinder, base adaptor, or piston plate, the load-spreading plate forms a complete support system, improving both safety and operational efficiency. This accessory ensures that cylinders maintain vertical alignment under load, minimising the risk of accidents or damage to the lifted object.
