Stone lifting clamp AHLC-1050

blockhorizontalmechanical

The Aardwolf AHLC-1050 Horizontal Stone Lifting Clamp is designed for efficient horizontal lifting and handling of concrete blocks, natural stone, slabs, and other heavy materials. With an adjustable grip range of 280–1,050 mm and a working load limit of 1,500 kg, this heavy-duty lifting clamp is suitable for construction sites, stone processing facilities, warehouses, and professional material handling applications.

The AHLC-1050 features hard-wearing, high-friction replaceable rubber pads that provide a secure grip while helping protect load surfaces from damage. Its wide adjustable gripping range provides flexibility for handling materials of different sizes, from routine lifting operations to more demanding stone and concrete block handling tasks.

A gravity-powered automatic locking and release mechanism allows the clamp jaws to automatically engage and release during the lifting cycle, minimizing manual intervention. The AHLC-1050 can be integrated with cranes or suitable forklift booms, while an optional rotating pad and limit stop system provides additional functionality for applications requiring controlled material rotation and positioning.

Features

• Adjustable jaw opening for precise positioning
• Wide grip range (280–1050 mm) for versatile use across projects
• Replaceable high-friction polyurethane pads to preserve material surfaces
• Lifting eye for direct crane hook attachment or fork-mounting options
• Automatic lock/unlock mechanism to minimize manual intervention
• Optional upgrade: rotating pad and limit stop for handling tasks that require rotation

Rotating pad and limit stop benefits

• Enables controlled rotation of loads for orientation tasks in horizontal and vertical planes
• Limit stop maintains a safe and consistent distance between clamp and load during rotation
• Quick-change rotating pads improve operational uptime when handling heavy materials
