8 Ton Vertical Plate Lifting Clamp

Description

Vertical plate lifting clamp is a specialized device used to securely lift and transport vertical plates or sheets of material. It is designed with a durable construction, typically featuring strong steel jaws or grippers, which can be easily attached to the edges of the plate.

Feature

• The lifting clamp is a standard design clamp for vertical lifting of steel plates and steel structures.
• The spring loaded tightening lock mechanism assures a positive initial clamping force.
• The vertical lifting plate clamp is equipped with a safety mechanism, ensuring it does not slip when lifting force is applied and when load is being lowered.
• It is locked in closed as well as in open position.
• High-frequency quenching of die forged special alloy steels gives greater durability to the lifting clamp.

Specification

• Model: ATO-VLC-CDH8
• Max. Working Load of 2 Plate Clamps: 8 Ton
• Jaw Opening: 0~60mm
• Weight: 26kg

Note*: During hoisting operations, 2 or multiple vertical plate lifting clamps are required to be used together.

Application

Tips: How do you use a vertical plate lifting clamp?

A vertical plate lifting clamp is a device used to lift and transport vertical steel plates or other heavy objects in a vertical position. So how to use a vertical plate lifting clamp?

• Inspect the clamp for any signs of damage or wear before use.
• Ensure that the clamp is suitable for the weight and thickness of the plate to be lifted.
• Position the clamp on the plate, ensuring that the jaws securely grip the material.
• Adjust the clamp’s gripping mechanism according to the plate’s thickness.
• Engage the lifting equipment (e.g., crane or hoist) and attach it securely to the clamp’s lifting eye.
• Test the clamp’s grip by slightly lifting the plate off the ground.
• Once confirmed, lift the plate slowly and smoothly, ensuring that the load is balanced.
• Move and position the plate as required, following safe lifting practices.
• Lower the plate carefully to the desired location and release the clamp’s grip.
• Inspect the plate and clamp after use for any damage and store them properly for future use.
