Description

The RUD India External Support Tong is a robust coil-handling solution designed as small lifting tongs to accommodate coils of varying diameters and depths. As beam lifting tongs with a heavy-duty lead screw arrangement, it ensures positive locking and vertical lifts up to 40 tons. Engineered for demanding environments, this external support tong stands out among industrial lifting equipment thanks to its ASME BTH standard compliance and user-friendly design.

How Does the External Support Tong Work?

Using a precise lead screw mechanism, the External Support Tong operates like traditional lifting tongs but with enhanced supporting arms that lock securely around the coil. Operators adjust the vertical arm length to match coil length, then crank or motorize the screw to engage the arms firmly. Once locked, integrated safety factors rated triple the yield stress prevent slippage, allowing safe vertical transport and placement.

Features

  • ASME BTH Standard Design with a safety factor triple the yield stress
  • Adjustable arm height for diverse coil lengths via positive-locking lead screw
  • Manual or motorized operation for flexibility
  • Low-maintenance sealed bearings and corrosion-resistant coatings
  • Optional automation kits for remote control
  • Versatile beam lifting tongs and small lifting tongs configurations

Industrial Applications

Perfect for steel mills, paper & pulp factories, and pipeline yards, the External Support Tong excels in coil erection, storage and transport. Its capacity makes it ideal for any facility relying on industrial lifting equipment to move heavy cylindrical loads safely and efficiently.
