Description
Yoke Anchor Point – Multi-Directional High-Performance Lifting Point
The Yoke Anchor Point with Metric Thread is a premium-grade, fully articulated lifting point designed for safe multi-directional load handling in demanding industrial environments. Manufactured from forged, quenched, and tempered alloy steel, this lifting component provides exceptional strength, durability, and fatigue resistance for critical lifting operations.
With full 360° rotation and 180° pivot capability, the anchor point allows lifting from virtually any direction without compromising load integrity. This makes it ideal for complex rigging scenarios where load direction frequently changes or where traditional fixed lifting points would introduce unsafe side loading.
Available in Working Load Limits (WLL) from 0.5 tonnes up to 22.5 tonnes, the Yoke Anchor Point is suitable for a wide range of applications across engineering, construction, fabrication, offshore, and heavy industry sectors.
360° Rotation & 180° Pivot for True Multi-Directional Lifting
The advanced articulation system allows the lifting point to fully align with applied forces, ensuring safe and efficient load transfer regardless of direction.
Key movement benefits include:
Full 360° rotation under load
180° pivot articulation for maximum flexibility
True multi-directional lifting capability
Elimination of dangerous side loading
Improved stability in dynamic lifting conditions
This makes it particularly effective for lifting points subjected to unpredictable load angles or rotating assemblies.
Forged Alloy Steel Construction for Extreme Strength
Each Yoke Anchor Point is manufactured from high-grade forged alloy steel and quenched and tempered for maximum mechanical performance.
Key material advantages include:
High-strength forged alloy steel body
Quenched and tempered for enhanced toughness
Superior fatigue resistance under cyclic loads
Corrosion-resistant protective finish
Precision-engineered load-bearing geometry
This ensures long service life even in harsh industrial environments such as offshore platforms, steel fabrication yards, and heavy construction sites.
Certified Safety, Testing & Full Traceability
Every anchor point is manufactured and tested to meet strict international lifting standards, ensuring complete compliance and operational safety.
Quality assurance includes:
Tested in accordance with EN 1677-1
Certified to DGUV GS-HM-36
Proof tested to 2.5 × Working Load Limit
Fatigue rated to 20,000 cycles at 1.5 × WLL
100% Magnaflux crack detection on load-rated parts
Full traceability of forged components and cap screws
Meets or exceeds ASME B30.26 requirements
These rigorous standards ensure safe performance in critical lifting applications.
Metric Thread Installation for Secure Mounting
The metric threaded design allows for quick and secure installation into pre-tapped holes, ensuring reliable anchoring in structural or machined components.
Installation benefits include:
Standard metric thread compatibility
Quick and simple installation process
Secure engagement into tapped holes
Suitable for permanent lifting points
Ideal for OEM and engineered lifting systems
This makes it a practical solution for both permanent and semi-permanent lifting applications.
Typical Applications
The Yoke Metric Anchor Point is widely used across heavy industry sectors, including:
Machinery lifting and installation

Safety & User Instructions
Ensure correct metric thread engagement before applying load.
Verify installation depth and structural integrity of the tapped hole.
Do not exceed the stated Working Load Limit.
Inspect before each use for wear, cracking, or deformation.
Ensure full 360° rotation and 180° pivot movement is unobstructed.
Avoid shock loading or sudden impact forces.
Prevent side loading beyond design intent.
Remove from service if any damage or fatigue is detected.
Always follow approved lifting plans and applicable safety regulations.
