"Some loads need more than a single point of contact to avoid damage or dangerous accidents, so a simple sling might not do the job. Once a load is in the air, its size, weight or shape can make it unsafe without more control of things like rotation and load distribution. Call us and we can work through the factors with you."

Standard Duty Lifting Beams
Channel design lifting beams don't take up much headroom, which is an important advantage when there's limited vertical space for making a lift. Each beam features two load attachment hooks that can be set to two or three standard spreads.
Short Span Lifting Beams
This device features a triangular plate design that is ideal for lifting short span loads. It uses less headroom than a spreader beam or channel style lifting beam, leaving more room to hoist the load. Available in 1' to 3' spreads and a range of capacities.
Spreader Beams
Spreader beams utilize upper rigging that connects to the hoist or crane from two lift points, providing greater load stability than lifting beams. The rigging occupies extra headroom, so spreaders are best used when headroom is not constrained.
Universal Lifting-Spreader Beams
These versatile beams have several upper lift points, so they can be utilized as either lifting beams or spreaders. They also include multiple load attachment points for adjusting the spread and balancing the load for safer lifts.
Narrow Coil Lifters
The problem of lifting coils without damaging them is solved by this C-shaped hook. A handle makes it easier to guide the lower arm through the inner diameter of the coil for secure lifting and positioning. For narrow coils 8" to 20" wide.
Fixed Diameter Bar Tongs
These specialized devices feature curved tong arms that directly grip round bars and pipes. Use for balanced loads or in pairs at the ends of a spreader or lifting beam for improved stability. Sized to lift 5" or 8" diameter bars.
Adjustable Diameter Bar Tongs
Each adjustable bar tong model can handle a range of bar and pipe sizes. The scissoring of the tong and friction from the curved pads grasp the load when properly balanced. Several sizes available, including diameters from 2.5" to 15".
Four Point Sack Lifter Beams
These four-point lifters are perfect for hoisting bulk container sacks. Each arm has a sling keeper that prevents the lifting straps from sliding off during the lift. Smooth edges reduce wear on the straps. Available in 36" and 48" spreads.
Chlorine Gas Cylinder Lifting Beam
This cylinder lifter is sized for a standard chlorine gas cylinder with its 80.75" to 82.25" spread. It features a low headroom beam design and smooth lifting hook edges that help prevent damage to lifting straps.
