Lifting tongs

Pressure tongs can be used to lift objects that have sufficient structure and density to stand up to the application of lateral force.

• ·Lifts bales of paper, cotton, and other materials
• ·Wide gripping surface for load stability
• ·Includes Auto-Latch mechanism for one person operation
• ·Complies with ASME standards
• ·Model Number
• ·Rated Capacity

Support Tongs are used for repeat pickups of constant-sized containers such as boxes and crates. The arm design allows significant height on the lifted item and the Auto-Latch mechanism allows the operator to position, engage, lift, move, place, and disengage the lifted item without assistance.

• ·Broad capacity range
• ·Low-headroom design
• ·Complies with ASME standards
• ·Model Number

This screw-type grab allows for handling of a wide range of ingots. Additional grip force is applied by the wedge action of the points when the load is lifted. This unit is designed to grip an ingot in the vertical position and lay it down to the horizontal position. Grabs are custom designed per application.

• ·Screw drive for a wide range of ingot widths
• ·Bronze drive nuts for long life and smooth operation
• ·Wedge action applies grip force
• ·Low-headroom design
• ·Close tolerance machined slide beam and grip arms
• ·Heavy-duty worm gear reducer

This rack-and-pinion grab is designed to handle a wide range of ingots when in the horizontal position. Gripping force is applied through the legs by the tong action when an ingot is lifted. This unit is suitable for low-headroom operations. Grabs are custom designed per application.

• ·Low-headroom design
• ·Replaceable wear plates
• ·Dual rack-and-pinion drive
• ·Grip force developed through tong geometry
• ·Includes slip clutch for drive protection
• ·Close tolerance machining for sliding arms

This automatic Ingot/Slab Tong is for use in the primary metals industry. Tongs are designed to your specific requirements to suit the width, length, thickness, and maximum weight to be lifted.

• ·Handles a wide range of product lengths, widths, thicknesses, and weights

When you need to ensure there will be no marring of the surface on concrete, stone, metal or other expensive or more delicate loads, the polyurethane gripping surfaces on the Model ST Slab Tongs have your back.

• ·Designed for lifting dry slabs of concrete, stone, or metal that must be protected from scratching or marring
• ·3.25 Ton SHACKLE
• ·Use in construction work to position slabs
• ·The curved pads give proper contact for gripping smooth surfaces and handling a large range of sizes
• ·LOAD WIDTH 4
• ·Polyurethane gripping surfaces are standard
