Buying guide
How to chooselifting clamps
Using the wrong orientation or jaw opening is the main cause of clamp accidents. Check these before purchase.
What thickness and orientation?
Vertical clamps must not be used horizontal unless rated for both. Measure plate thickness at the grip point.
What surface finish?
Mill scale, paint and rust affect grip. Clean contact faces where possible.
How many clamps for the lift?
Long plates often need two clamps with a spreader. Share load length and we will advise.
Certifications
