Vertical and horizontal plate lifting clamps for handling steel plate, road plates and fabricated sections.
Vertical clamps lift and turn plate through 180 degrees; horizontal clamps are used in pairs or fours for flat handling. Both are supplied proof-tested, marked with rated capacity and jaw opening range, and shipped with certificates.
Jaw range matters more than capacity. A clamp used outside its jaw opening range does not grip as designed regardless of how far it is inside its rated load. Send the plate thicknesses you handle and we will specify against those.
Heavy duty builds use upgraded cam and pivot assemblies for high cycle service.

- Grade 100 alloy load chain in place of Grade 80
- Heavier hook forgings with self-locking latches on both ends
- Sealed bearings and upgraded brake friction for high cycle duty
- Corrosion-resistant finish for outdoor and marine service
