YOKE Industrial Corp., the leading manufacturer of high-quality forged products, presents, in cooperation with Kettenfabrik Unna GmbH & Co. KG, certified lifting points of grade 100 in the field of sling points from its product series "YELLOW POINT". Depending on the version, sling points of the "YELLOW POINT" series can either be assembled or welded on. Changing the bolts of the YOKE Lifting Point LBO is particularly easy when a repair or an extension is required.

The working load limit of the lifting points from the YOKE "YELLOW POINT" series is 100 % in the temperature range between -40° and 100° C, 85 % at temperatures between 100° and 200° C and still 75 % at 350° C. The YOKE Lifting Point LBO still keeps its full working load limit at loads below 90 angle degrees.

The YELLOW POINT product series satisfies the highest quality requirements. The Taiwanese manufacturer YOKE Industrial Corp. that is certified according to ISO 9001 has obtained type approvals and certifications from the most important international institutions and authorities, such as ABS, API, DNV, SABS and ZU, for its YOKE Lifting Point LBO. Yoke continuously practices a strict quality assurance system at each production stage, from the incoming material inspection right thru to the finished product, and each YOKE Lifting Point LBO gets subjected to electromagnetic checks by the manufacturer to identify cracks. In the course of the quality inspection, the lifting points are subjected to loads up to 2.5 times more than the admissible working load limit and they still have to withstand 1.5 times of the admissible working load limit while being subjected to permanent vibrations of at least 20 000 cycles. In addition to that, both the forged parts and the bolt are identified with a traceability code.

The "YELLOW POINT" Lifting Point LBO from YOKE has also been tested by the Deutsche Berufsgenossenschaft (BG - German Trade Association) and certified with the H stamp. Apart from that, it satisfies the requirements of the European Machinery Directive, of the Product Safety Act and of ASME standard B30.26.
