Description
The Yale VLRP/VLRG series is engineered for extremely low headroom applications where conventional hoists cannot operate efficiently. The hand chain hoist features an integrated manual trolley, designed to optimise lifting height and utilise available space in confined environments such as low-ceiling warehouses, production lines, or overhead storage systems.
The swivel truck trolley design allows the hoist to travel along runways with extremely tight radius curves, making it perfect for complex layouts. The hand wheel and gear case are positioned outside the bottom flange, allowing the bottom block to be raised almost flush with the underside of the beam, maximising lifting height and minimising required headroom.
Constructed entirely of robust steel, the hoist includes zinc-plated load and hand chains for corrosion resistance and long service life. Units are custom-built for specific beam dimensions, ensuring precise fit and smooth operation; note that they cannot be retrofitted to other beams.
Standard safety features include anti-drop and anti-tilt devices, providing reliable protection for operators and loads during use. Optional accessories include:
– Adjustable overload protection
– Chain containers for neat storage
– Rubber buffers to protect beams and equipment
The VLRP push trolley and VLRG geared trolley versions accommodate a wide range of beam widths and thicknesses, providing flexibility for both standard and specialised applications. Designed for maximum operational efficiency, this hoist allows safe, precise positioning of heavy loads in restricted or complex environments.
Whether used in manufacturing plants, warehouses, or material handling facilities, the VLRP/VLRG series delivers durable performance, low maintenance, and maximum flexibility. Made in the USA, it combines proven Yale quality with cutting-edge low headroom engineering.
Safety / User Instructions:
– Always confirm that the hoist is mounted on beams with the correct flange width and thickness.
– Do not exceed the stated working load limit (WLL).
– Ensure beam curves and radii match the specifications provided at the time of order.
– Operate the hand chain from a safe distance, clear of the suspended load.
– Perform regular inspections of chains, trolley wheels, hooks, and brake mechanisms.
– Use optional overload protection where required.
– This equipment is not intended for passenger lifting.
