The Aardwolf Slab Lifter AL30 is a compact vertical slab lifting clamp designed for safe lifting, handling and transporting of stone slabs up to 30 mm thick. Suitable for granite, marble and other stone materials, the AL30 can be used with cranes and forklift booms for efficient slab handling in workshops, warehouses and construction environments.
A mechanical locking latch securely engages the jaws during lifting and allows quick manual release after the slab is safely positioned. Integrated side rollers help the lifter move smoothly along the upper edge of the slab, making positioning and load centering easier.
Rubber-coated clamping plates provide high-friction contact while helping protect finished stone surfaces from scratches and marks. Manufactured from durable cast aluminum, the AL30 combines a 1,200 kg working load limit with a compact and lightweight design.
