Product Description
The Caldwell Low Headroom Lifting Beam is a below-the-hook lifting device rated at 1 Ton working load limit with a 6 in spread between lower attachment points, engineered specifically for crane and hoist applications where vertical clearance between the crane hook and the load is restricted. In standard lifting configurations, the combined height of the rigging assembly — including slings, shackles, and the hook — can consume significant headroom, limiting the usable lift height in facilities with low ceilings, mezzanines, process equipment, or other overhead obstructions. The low headroom design minimizes the vertical distance between the crane hook attachment point and the lower load attachment points, maximizing the available lift height within the facility's structural constraints.
The 6 in spread between the two lower attachment points provides a defined two-point lift geometry, distributing the load across two connection points spaced 6 in apart and eliminating the inward compression forces on the load that would result from sling-based rigging in a bridle configuration. This makes the beam well suited for lifting loads with two attachment points spaced at or near 6 in, such as machinery, fabricated assemblies, or structural components with closely spaced lifting lugs or eyes, in facilities where headroom is a limiting factor.
As a Caldwell product, this low headroom lifting beam is built to the dimensional and performance standards associated with the Caldwell line of below-the-hook lifting devices. It should be used only within its 1 Ton rated working load limit and operated in accordance with Caldwell's specifications and applicable below-the-hook lifting device standards including ASME B30.20.
Material: Steel alloy
Compatible With: Overhead crane and hoist systems rated to meet or exceed the 1 Ton working load limit Slings, shackles, and rigging hardware rated to meet or exceed the 1 Ton working load limit Loads with two attachment points spaced at or near the 6 in spread dimension Facilities with restricted headroom where standard rigging assemblies would limit usable lift height
Uses: Lifting operations in facilities with low ceilings, mezzanines, or other overhead clearance restrictions requiring maximized lift height Two-point lifting of loads with attachment points spaced at or near 6 in Machinery, fabricated assemblies, and structural component lifting in restricted headroom environments Applications requiring elimination of inward compression forces with a defined 6 in two-point lift geometry
Key Features: 1 Ton working load limit 6 in spread between lower attachment points for defined two-point lift geometry Low headroom design minimizes vertical rigging height to maximize usable lift height Rigid beam construction eliminates inward compression forces on the load Built to Caldwell's below-the-hook lifting device standards
Note: Specifications including beam dimensions, lower attachment point hardware details, and compatible rigging hardware should be confirmed against the official Caldwell product catalog or manufacturer documentation prior to ordering. The lifting beam must only be used within its 1 Ton rated working load limit and operated in full accordance with Caldwell's instructions and applicable lifting device safety standards.
