HORIZONTAL LATERAL LIFTING CLAMP

HPC 0.5∼ 5
Clamp for lateral (horizontal) lifting and handling of rigid steel
plates,“H”and“I”beams.

■FEATURES
The spring-loaded tightening lock mechanism assures a positive initial
clamping force.
The clamping force increases in proportion with the weight of the load.
The main body and the shackle are made of die-forged special alloy steels,
which are optimally tempered for maximum strength and durability .
High-frequency quenching of die-forged special alloy steels gives greater
durability to the cam.
The main body is a baked-on finish.
The clamp body can be easily checked for deformation by measuring the
safety points.
