Lifting clamps utilize various mechanisms (lever, cam, roller, or screw) to provide a friction grip on the plate. When selecting a clamp, consider:
IMPORTANT: Minimum Load Requirement
Some clamps (especially cam action types) rely on a minimum load to engage the gripping force safely. Unless specified otherwise by the manufacturer:
• The load should not be less than 20% of the Safe Working Load (SWL).
• The plate thickness should not be less than 20% of the maximum jaw opening.
Do not use defective clamps. Place the clamp over the load center. If the plate is long and tends to bend, use two clamps with a spreader beam to prevent the clamps from twisting. Keep oil, grease, and contaminants away from the gripping jaws.
Regularly inspect for:
