A lifting clamp is a tool that is required to position, transfer and hoist materials either vertically or horizontally from one station to the other. To make sure that distinct needs from each and every industry are met, there are diverse types and uses of lifting clamps. Here’s a look at them:

Beam clamps: Industries that involve lifting and suspending of heavy items make use of beam clamps. Examples of these heavy items include vehicles and steel beams.

Plate lifting clamps: They are useful for lifting, moving and transferring plates and metal sheets and no mark is left by them on the materials. Such clamps are used for both vertical and horizontal lifting.

Rail hand lifting clamps: As suggested by the name, these clamps are exclusively designed for the rail industry. They are used to lift and move pieces of rail track from one position to the other.

Pipe lifting clamps: They are useful for lifting and moving concrete, metal and plastic industrial pipes.

Round bar clamps: They are exclusively manufactured to assist in the lifting and moving of objects that are round or circular.

Girder clamps: They are similar to beam clamps as they attach to girders or beams to lift items in a vertical manner. The different models available in the marketplace can be easily adjusted to fit distinct types of girders and are also easy to use and install. Girder lamps are generally made use of in heavy-usage sectors of the industry.

Board clamps: These clamps are best suited for lifting and moving of non-metal objects like stone, plasterboard, wood or medium density fiber-board.

Drum lifting clamps: They are useful in lifting different types of drums like oil drums and chemical drums and other circular objects.

Pile pitching clamps: These clamps are specially designed to pitch the sheet of steel and are equipped with an attached rope for the purpose of trouble-free release from the ground. The clamps are outfitted with shackles and ropes for the purpose of removing steel piling from the ground.

Manhole clamps: They are exclusively built for transporting, laying and lifting of manhole covers.

Pulling clamps: In contrast to the other clamps, pulling clamps are manufactured to tension, position and pull heavy loads.
