Product Overview Lifting clamps are standard parts designed to link a load to a lifting device for the safe handling, movement, and positioning of heavy loads such as sheet metal, beams, drums, or concrete blocks. They consist of a system of jaws or gripping mechanisms ensuring a stable and secure grip on the load. The design varies according to the type of load, the material to be handled, and the lifting orientation, whether vertical or horizontal.
Compliance and Safety Lifting clamps comply with Directive 2006/42/EC. Careful selection and proper use are essential to ensure safe operations. Before each use, check the Maximum Working Load (MWL) and the condition of jaws and mechanisms. Never lift a load above a person. Always include clamps in a preventive maintenance program.
