A beam clamp is used to secure a hoist to a gantry or beam, ensuring that it is held safely in place. It is used as part of a crane of lifting equipment system, meaning that the person operating the crane will be able to move loads along the gantry using the clamp.
It is really important that the beam clamp you use is appropriate for the listing process. There are many different shapes and styles available on the market, and you will need to choose the most appropriate. It is essential that you select the right capacity, as beam clamps will all have a different maximum weight. One you have chosen the right shape and capacity, make sure that it is going to be compatible with the crane you have.
Every time you use a beam clamp, give it a visual inspection to make sure everything is working as it should be.
