Yaletrac cable puller
800 kg · 1.600 kg · 3.200 kg
The portable Yaletrac cable puller is a versatile tool
for pulling, lifting, lowering, tensioning and securing
loads over long distances. It has been specially
designed for applications in industry, building
construction, civil engineering, power line construc-
tion, ship building and oil refineries etc.
The Yaletrac cable puller is almost service free –
easy to use and safe. The standard unit comprises
of the Yaletrac cable puller with handlever and a
20 m resp. 10 m length of wire rope mounted on a
hand reel. The original Yaletrac wire rope has six
strands with a steel core and is identified by an
orange strand. Only this special wire rope will
ensure proper functioning.
Every Yaletrac cable puller is factory tested with
overload. The units are supplied with a test
certificate showing the serial number and an
operating instructions manual which contains an
EC declaration of conformity.
Yaletrac cable pullers have been tested and
approved by many national and international safety
and inspection organisations.

A broken pin can be replaced without removing
the load.
• A lever disengages the rope clamp system allo-
wing easy, smooth installation of the wire rope.
• Yaletrac uses a special flexible wire rope. It has
six strands with a steel core and is identified by
an orange strand. The rope is tapered at one end
As shown in the drawings all models can for easy threading and fitted with a safety hook
be fitted with safety clevis hooks. on the other end.
• The parallel arrangement of the clamping system
protects the wire rope by distributing the clam-
ping forces evenly. A long rope advance per each
lever stroke increases the working speed.
• The large opening in the top of the unit allows
easy cleaning: simply flush the unit with water,
apply motor oil for lubrication and the Yaletrac is
again ready for use.

Cable puller
LM
Yale cable puller LM
Pulling force 500 - 1.800 daN
The use of aluminium alloy castings provide a
lightweight, corrosion resistant pulling and tension-
ing unit. The double interlocking pawl system
ensures safe function, all load bearing shafts are
mounted on prelubricated bearings to reduce wear.
All springs and shafts are manufactured from
stainless steel. The lifting medium is a non-twisting,
zinc plated, special steel cable. The cable pullers
are fitted with fracture resistant suspension and
load hooks. The hooks are fitted with safety latches
and are free to rotate through 360°.
The cable puller LM can be used in single or double
fall configuration. In double fall configuration the
pulling force is doubled and the lifting height is
halved.

Cable grip
LMG
Little Mule® cable grip LMG
Pulling force 2.000 - 5.000 daN
The LITTLE MULE® cable grip is a device for
gripping, pulling and tensioning unsheathed wire
ropes, cables and metal rods in all forms up to a
tensile strength of 1770 N/mm2 but is dependant
on the diameter and surface intergrity.
The parallel jaws provide a firm, non-slip grip
without causing damage to the wire rope.
A special spring-loaded guide prevents the grip from
dropping off the wire rope and allows instant
release without jamming.
The model LMG II-X is supplied with grooved jaws
and is suitable for wire ropes with a tensile strength
of up to 1960 N/mm2, but is dependant on the
rope diameter and surface integrity.

Pulley blocks
Pulley blocks, hinged,
with single steel sheave
Capacities 1.000 - 6.400 kg
One side of the Yale pulley blocks is hinged and can
be opened for easy and quick positioning of the
wire rope on the sheave.
It can also provide a quick and versatile rigging
point or redirect a wire rope.
Swinging the hook in the direction of pull securely
locks the pulley block. The high quality cast steel
sheaves have machined grooves and are fitted with
Permaglide® bushes.
When choosing and classifying pulley blocks, take
the „Principles for Rope Drives“ DIN 15020 into
consideration
