Vertical plate clamps pick and carry steel plates in the vertical plain though options with articulating (swivel) lifting eyes are also available that can connect to a horizontal plate then lift & turn to the vertical position.
3 Horizontal Plate Lifting Clamps
Horizontal plate lifting clamps grip to the steel plate either by the teeth biting into the surface of the plate, otherwise referred to as defamation or by gripping and supporting between multiple clamps to perform the lift, they are sometime referred to as plate lifting hooks and we can supply with teeth, roller toe, smooth toe and with a non marking lined face.

The clamps offered online are suitable for a range of plate widths and some are adjustable. We can supply horizontal claps in capacities to suit most lifting equipment applications, some are rated individually and others are rated in sets, please follow the operation and user manual to avoid misuse.
4 Pulling Clamps
LiftingSafety offer pulling clamps in the section of our on-line catalogue; meant for pulling or tensioning the load and not for lifting equipment applications. Pulling clamps tend to be a screw lock design, the tighter the user tightens the screw thread the more grip is applied. Pulling Clamps are mostly used as anchor points, from this a piece of lifting equipment will be attached to allow two surfaced to be pulled together for example a fabrications to be pulled together and positioned so that they can be welded. Pulling clamps offered her are made by Camlok, Yale and Crosby (IP Clamps) and they usually have a cam pad that when a load is applied to the clamp the circular toothed pad pivots in a cam action, gripping the load, the harder the pull the greater the friction grip by the clamp. To avoid accidents please always follow the manufacturer’s operation user guide as the are limitation with surfaces and application on pulling and tensioning clamps
5 Scissor Grab Lifting Clamps for Steel Sections and Concrete Applications
Scissor grip lifting claps are used for gripping and lifting all types of equipment, steel, concrete, plasterboard, plastic, glass and many more. On all the scissor grip lamps the gripping force is generated by the scissor action, some of these clamps bit into and before the lifting surface, others are none marking pads or a lip under the load being lifted. All our scissor lifting clamps are adjustable - they have an adjustable range that they can be used within. We supply clamps made by Tractel and Camlok and the clamps can be used to lift square and round material. Please contact our sales or technical team if you can’t find the clamp that best suits your application as we can make specials to our customers specification.
6 Non-Marking, Non Maring lifting Clamps for Steel, Wood, Glass etc...
LiftingSafety offer a good range on non-marking clamps from Tractel, Camlok and from Crosby IP Clamps. In different industries they are also referred to as non maring, none marking clamps, board clamp, glass clamp, panel clapms etc..... These hook suspended clamps are used where no deformation of the item lifted is allowed. The clamps will grip and lift the load wile causing no damage to the load. The other advantage of the non marking range of clamps is that there is no minimum SWL, with other types of lifting clamp the design dictates that 10% or in some cases 20% of the maximum SWL must be applied to the clamp for the gripping action to work, this is not the case with this range of lifting clamps though the user must always refer to the operation and user manual prior to use. All the clamps have jaws that adjust to accommodate different thicknesses of material, having a wide range mans there may be a standard product to suit most lifting applications; if this is not the case we can manufacture and supply special bespoke non marking clamps to suit the end users specification.

10 Coil Handling Lifting Clamps
We offer steel coil lifting and handling clamps as manufactured by Camlok and Tractel that are designed for lifting and handling pipe sections, coils, rolls and rings etc. in the horizontal position. With some coil clamps that lift by a cantilever action if collared pipes are to be lifted adjust the balance accordingly. Other coil clamps use a twin arm C hook method designed to lift loads in the horizontal position and are ideal for narrow aisle handling applications. Coil Turning Hook is a universal C hook, incorporating a tipping feature which allows the coil to be lifted or lowered, whether the coil is flat or upright. The tipping device also serves the purpose of preventing accidental slipping of the load during transport. Tractel TOPAL CR are designed for the lifting of coils and/or turning over from the horizontal to the vertical position and vice versa.

Some rail clamps are designed to be used in pairs with a lifting beam and to suit a specific rail profile and others are adjustable to cover many rail sections. Please contact our sales or engineering staff for assistance.
12 Remote Release and Drop Test Clamps
This Drop Test clamp is a unique product to LiftingSafety, having developed many years ago for dropping concrete sea defence weights into the sea the drop test clamp is making its revival. We decided to optimize the dropping clamp and have taken orders from all industry sectors for applications that would never have been considered at the time it was envisaged. This drop test clamp otherwise often referred to as a dropping clamp can be used to remotely release load weighing up to 25 tonnes or even greater capacities on request. The load is attached to the clamp by a master link. The clamp has an interlock system that will prevent accidental release of the load if one of the release rope is pulled during the lifting phase of the operation The dropping of any load is a dangerous activity and therefore we emphasise that the operation and user manual must be adhered to in along with the user risk assessment and method statement.
