The Safety Standards Behind RUD India’s Plate Lifting Clamps

From lifting beams and lifting clamps to a wide range of other products, RUD India is known for its reliability, longevity, efficiency, and sheer quality. The plate lifting clamps are tailored to adhere to the highest technological and quality standards with a view towards ensuring stringent efficiency and safety for bulk material handling. However, while making use of these clamps, you should always follow some best practices to avoid damages/injuries. 

Safety Practices While Using Plate Lifting Clamps

While using RUD India’s plate lifting clamps, there are quite a few safety practices that you should adhere to. These include the following: 

  • Inspection : You should always carefully inspect clamps before every use, looking for wear and tear, damages, and labelling. 
  • Technique : Always attach your clamp safely and lift it smoothly, while keeping sudden movements at bay. 
  • Overloading : Make sure that you don’t overload your clamp, since it may lead to serious damage or equipment failure. 
  • Positioning : Always position the clamp properly over the center of gravity of the load that you’re dealing with. 
  • Defective Items : Be wary of defective clamps or ones that are worn, damaged, or with locking systems that do not work properly. 
  • Other Tips : Do not leave your loads unattended; keep them secure and do not have them suspended. Keep your clamps clean without letting grease, contaminants, or oil get into the jaws. 

A Guide to Horizontal and Vertical Plate Lifting Clamps

RUD India offers both horizontal and vertical plate lifting clamps. Here’s looking at both these products below. 

Horizontal Plate Lifting Clamp

These clamps enable horizontal transportation and lifting of steel plates without any hassles. They offer relatively lighter weight and a compact shape, while coming with a higher lifting capacity alongside. You should always use these clamps in pairs or multiples, while the jaw opening and lifting capacity are also engraved in the body. These clamps are specialized tools that offer reliable grip and lower the risks of accidents. Their applications include shipbuilding, steel fabrication, construction, and machining, to name a few.

Vertical Plate Lifting Clamp 

These clamps help secure and move plates vertically. They can be integrated with lifting beams and crane hooks for smoother solutions across various industries. RUD India clamps come with safety measures like the latch type safety lock, auxiliary lock, and the lever type safety lock. They can securely lift and grip plates of varying thicknesses, while enabling easy material handling and doing away with the requirement for manual labor. They lower the risks of accidents and uphold the highest standards of safety in sectors like construction, steel fabrication, shipbuilding, etc. 

Conclusion 

RUD India offers the best plate lifting clamps that adhere to stringent standards of safety and quality. Some of the top measures also include precision engineering for constant griping force even with varying thickness (keeps slippage away), built-to-last quality for rigorous environments, robust materials, advanced locking systems, and compliance with the highest industry standards like DIN for guaranteed quality and safety.
