Overview

Able SV Plus Vertical Lifting Clamp, 1 Tonne (VLC1)

The Able VLC1 is a professional-grade vertical lifting clamp built for the vertical lifting, turning over and transfer of flat steel plates, shaped steels and other sheet materials. Engineered from fully forged and heat-treated alloy steel (20 CrMn Ti jaw and floor material), every clamp is individually serialised and PI-coded for complete traceability throughout its working life.

A positive safety latch mechanism ensures the clamp jaw cannot disengage even if the lifting rope goes slack, providing a critical layer of protection against accidental load release. The clamp meets BS EN 13155 and is subject to Able's rigorous quality approval inspection procedures before leaving the factory.
