Description

LC HORIZONTAL LIFTING CLAMP

LC Horizontal Lifting Clamp for Steel Plate Transfer

The LC Horizontal Lifting Clamp is designed
for horizontal lifting and transfer of steel plates, with a
compact construction that is light in weight relative to
its lifting capacity.

The LC design uses a plate-supporting profile and
buffer-cam arrangement to facilitate insertion and
removal beneath the plate. It can also be used beneath
a suitable spreader in appropriate lifting arrangements.

The current KKV technical range covers
1T, 2T and 3T. The listed working load
limit is based on paired clamp use.

PRODUCT FEATURES

Lightweight Horizontal Plate Handling in Paired Operation

01

Horizontal Plate Lifting

Designed for controlled horizontal lifting
and transfer of steel plates.

02

Paired Clamp Operation

The listed working load limit is based on
using the clamps as a pair.

03

Lightweight Construction

Compact clamp weight helps simplify handling
and positioning on the plate.

04

Plate-Supporting Profile

The clamp profile is designed to facilitate
insertion and removal beneath the plate.

05

Steel Lifting Eye

The upper lifting eye provides the rigging
connection point for the clamp assembly.

06

1T–3T KKV Range

Available in 1T, 2T and 3T capacities in
the current specification table.

while visible product details support model and
capacity identification.

PAIRED OPERATION

Use LC Clamps as a Balanced Pair

The listed working load limit for the LC clamp is based
on paired operation. Both clamps should be positioned to
support the plate evenly and connected to a suitable
lifting arrangement.

Use as a Pair

Select and rig clamps as a matched pair
for the listed WLL.
Balance the Load

Position both clamps to maintain stable
horizontal load support.
Check Plate Thickness

Confirm the plate is within the specified
jaw-opening range.
Apply Load Smoothly

Avoid shock loading and verify stable clamp
engagement before travel.

APPLICATIONS

LC Horizontal Lifting Clamp Applications

Building Construction

Horizontal handling of suitable steel plates
during structural work.

Shipbuilding

Plate handling in suitable shipyard and
fabrication operations.

Metal Workshops

Moving steel plates between fabrication and
processing stations.

Civil Engineering

Suitable plate handling for construction
and infrastructure projects.

SELECTION GUIDE

How to Select an LC Horizontal Lifting Clamp

01

Determine Pair Capacity

Select the listed WLL according to the total
load carried by the clamp pair.

02

Measure Plate Thickness

Confirm that the plate fits within the
applicable jaw-opening range.

03

Plan Clamp Position

Position the pair so the load remains
balanced during horizontal lifting.

04

Check the Rigging Arrangement

Use suitable slings, spreader or lifting
hardware for the intended operation.

05

Inspect Plate Contact Areas

Verify that both clamp contact areas are
suitable for secure engagement.

INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE

Inspect Both LC Clamps Before Lifting

Inspect each clamp body and lifting eye for
visible deformation or damage.
Check gripping and supporting components for
wear or contamination.
Verify that both clamps in the pair are suitable
for the same lifting operation.
Confirm that pins, joints and moving components
operate correctly.
Keep load-contact surfaces clean and free from
oil or loose material.
Remove any damaged clamp from service before
the pair is used again.
