Product Description: The Super Tools 1/2 Ton Universal Type Vertical Lifting Clamp is a compact and adaptable plate lifting device engineered for the safe vertical handling of lighter steel plates across a broad range of industrial applications including fabrication shops, steel service centers, maintenance facilities, shipyards, and general light industrial environments. The universal design accommodates a wider variety of plate thicknesses and surface conditions than conventional clamping configurations, making it a flexible and practical tool for operations that regularly work with varied or mixed plate stock at lighter capacities. The clamping mechanism engages the plate securely when the load is applied, maintaining a firm and reliable hold throughout the lift.
The clamp body and jaw components are manufactured from high-strength alloy steel to provide the structural integrity and wear resistance required for consistent performance under regular use. The jaw opening is designed to accept a range of plate thicknesses, and the hardened contact surfaces grip the plate firmly without requiring manual adjustment once the load is engaged. A swivel hook or shackle attachment at the top of the unit connects readily to overhead hoists, cranes, and lifting slings, supporting smooth and controlled vertical movement of plate material in both open and confined work settings.
At a 1/2 Ton working load limit, this clamp is ideally suited for handling thin or lightweight steel plates commonly encountered in light fabrication, sheet metal work, maintenance operations, and smaller-scale industrial tasks. The universal type configuration makes it especially practical for shops and yards that handle a variety of lighter plate dimensions and require a single clamp capable of adapting to different stock without tool changes. The clamp is designed for vertical lifting only and must be operated strictly within its rated capacity and jaw opening range. Pre-use inspection and strict adherence to the rated working load limit are required for safe and compliant operation.
Material: High-strength alloy steel body Hardened jaw contact surfaces Steel swivel hook or shackle attachment
