Internal Support Tong

RUD India coil lifting tongs are purpose built for safe vertical handling of rolls and coils. These coil lifting tongs grip from the bottom flat surface to provide positive support while protecting the material from damage. The compact low headroom design makes them suited to narrow aisle stocking and tight plant layouts. The tongs automatically adjust to varying load sizes and release with an easy manual latch for fast operation. Polyurethane pads protect finished surfaces and hardened pivot components ensure long service life. Built to ASME BTH standards and fitted with a name plate, these tongs combine safety and simplicity.

How does the RUD Internal Support Tong work?

Internal support tongs support coils from beneath so the load is carried on a flat surface for maximum stability. The design features automatic adjustment so the tool conforms to different coil diameters without manual reconfiguration. An easy to release manual latch aids safe engagement and release during operations. Polyurethane pads on the contact faces secure the coil without marring the surface. Low self weight and robust construction with hardened bushings and lubrication points reduce wear and maintenance. Each unit is supplied with a name plate showing product code, SWL, self weight and year of manufacture for traceability.

Industry Applications

• Paper rolls and paper mills where vertical handling and support are required.
• Metal coil handling in rolling mills, slitting lines and plate storage as vertical coil lifting equipment.
• Warehousing and narrow aisle stocking where compact design improves accessibility.
• Foundries and processing lines that need safe lifting equipment for heavy coils.
