The Aardwolf Slab Lifter AL50 is a vertical slab lifting clamp designed for safe lifting, handling and transporting of stone slabs. Suitable for use with cranes and forklift booms, the AL50 provides a secure grip for granite, marble and other stone slab materials in fabrication workshops, warehouses and construction environments.
The mechanical locking latch securely engages the jaws during lifting and allows quick release after the slab is safely set down. Integrated side rollers help the lifter move smoothly along the upper edge of the slab for easier positioning and accurate centering.
Rubber-coated clamping plates provide high-friction contact while helping protect finished stone surfaces against scratches and marking. Manufactured from durable cast aluminum, the AL50 combines a high lifting capacity with a compact, lightweight design for efficient slab handling.
Key Features- Locking latch mechanism - Securely locks the jaws during lift and allows controlled manual release on set-down.
- Side rollers - Reduce edge contact damage and assist precise centering for balanced lifts.
- Rubber-coated clamp plates - Protect slab surfaces from marks and scratches.
- Safety factor 3:1 - Engineered to operate within the rated working load limit.
- Cast aluminium construction - Lightweight yet dimensioned for handling typical slab weights.
