Slab Tong

RUD India slab tongs are engineered lifting tools that provide safe, damage-free handling of dry slabs of concrete, stone and metal. Designed for metal slab lifting and heavy duty application, these slab tongs combine automatic adjustment with robust construction to protect surfaces from scratching or marring. Our automatic slab tongs can be tailored to specific widths, lengths, thicknesses and capacities so they fit your workflow. Features include auto-latch holding, hardened pivot pins with lubrication, replaceable urethane facing and landing pads for secure handling of thinner loads. Ideal for primary metal industries, construction yards and fabrication plants that require reliable handling.

How do the RUD Slab Tongs Work

RUD slab tongs use a mechanical jaw geometry that grips dry slabs securely while avoiding surface damage. Automatic slab tongs have a full range automatic adjustment that adapts to varying slab widths, lengths and thicknesses so operators do not need to reconfigure the tool for each lift. An auto-latch mechanism holds the tong open and relaxes on the load so the grip engages reliably when lifting begins. All pivot points use hardened steel bushings and pins with lubrication fittings for long life. Landing pads enable straight horizontal motion of grip points to handle thinner loads and replaceable urethane facing on lower legs protects finished surfaces.

Industry Applications

• Primary Metal Industry: custom-designed tongs for plate handling and repeatable metal slab lifting tasks.
• Construction and Precast Yards: safe transfer of concrete slabs and stone panels with surface protection.
• Fabrication and Rolling Mills: indexing, alignment and loading of heavy plates where heavy duty application is required.
• High Temperature Environments: versions available for heat resistant handling in foundries and hot strip plants.

The RUD India Advantage

RUD India combines global engineering standards with local service and customization. Our slab tongs are built to client specifications for width, length, thickness and lifting capacity so each unit matches the intended workflow. Robust materials, hardened pivot components and lubrication points reduce downtime while the auto-latch and full automatic adjustment features improve operator safety and cycle time. With nationwide spare parts support and trained service teams, RUD India ensures your slab tongs deliver consistent performance in heavy duty application environments.
