Designed for industrial material handling, fabrication, construction, machinery manufacturing, workshops, and related applications, ULIDE lifting clamps provide application-specific solutions for lifting, positioning, and handling loads where the correct gripping configuration is essential.
Lifting Clamp Types for Different Handling Requirements
Different loads and lifting operations require different clamp configurations. ULIDE offers several types of lifting clamps according to lifting direction, load configuration, and application.
Vertical Lifting Clamps
Vertical lifting clamps are designed for lifting steel plates and similar materials in a vertical orientation. They are suitable for applications where plates need to be lifted, positioned, or moved from one working area to another.
ULIDE’s vertical range includes CDH Type, CD Type, and SVC Type configurations, with rated capacities ranging from up to 8 tons to 12 tons depending on the model.
Pinzas de elevación horizontales
Horizontal lifting clamps are designed for horizontal handling of steel plates and sheet materials. They can be used in fabrication, processing, storage, and other applications where plates need to be moved or positioned horizontally.
The ULIDE range includes PDB Type, LA Type, LC Type, and L Type configurations, covering different capacity requirements.
Reversal Lifting Clamps
Reversal lifting clamps are intended for applications involving the repositioning or turning of steel plates and components. They provide an option for handling operations where simply lifting a load vertically or horizontally is not sufficient.
ULIDE offers DFQ Type and DFM Type reversal lifting clamps for different capacity requirements.
Plate-Specific Lifting Clamps
Some lifting operations depend on the number or configuration of plates being handled. ULIDE provides dedicated designs for single-ply, double-plate, and multi-steel-plate handling.
These include PDQ Type single-ply plate lifting clamps, QS Type double-plate lifting clamps, and PDK Type multi steel plate lifting clamps.
Oil Drum Lifting Clamps
Dedicated oil drum lifting clamps are available for handling drums in industrial and material handling environments. The YAC Type and SL Type configurations provide options for different drum-handling requirements.

Vertical vs Horizontal vs Reversal Lifting Clamps
The lifting direction is one of the first factors to consider when selecting a clamp. Different configurations are designed around different handling movements.
| Clamp Type | Main Handling Direction | Typical Material | Main Selection Consideration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vertical Lifting Clamp | Vertical lifting | Steel plates and structural plates | Vertical load handling |
| Horizontal Lifting Clamp | Horizontal handling | Steel plates and sheets | Horizontal movement and positioning |
| Reversal Lifting Clamp | Reversal or repositioning | Steel plates and components | Turning or repositioning requirements |
| Single-Ply Clamp | Individual plate handling | Single steel plates | Single-plate application |
| Double-Plate Clamp | Two-plate handling | Steel plates | Double-plate configuration |
| Multi-Plate Clamp | Multiple plate handling | Stacked steel plates | Multi-plate requirements |
| Oil Drum Clamp | Drum lifting | Oil drums | Drum handling |
| Beam Clamp | Beam handling | Structural beams | Beam lifting or attachment |
The correct clamp should be selected according to the actual lifting procedure rather than based only on rated capacity. Load orientation, material configuration, gripping conditions, and the manufacturer’s specified operating requirements should all be considered.
How to Choose the Right Lifting Clamp
Choosing a lifting clamp requires more than matching the clamp capacity to the load weight. The lifting direction, material configuration, gripping range, and working environment can all affect the appropriate selection.
| Selection Factor | What to Consider |
|---|---|
| Capacidad de carga | Select a rated capacity appropriate for the intended working load and operating conditions. |
| Lifting Direction | Determine whether the load will be lifted vertically, handled horizontally, or repositioned during the operation. |
| Tipo de material | Confirm that the clamp is suitable for the material and load configuration being handled. |
| Plate Configuration | Determine whether the application involves a single plate, double plates, or multiple plates. |
| Material Thickness | Check the applicable gripping range for the material being handled. |
| Load Geometry | Consider the shape, dimensions, weight distribution, and accessible gripping points. |
| Working Environment | Evaluate available space, lifting equipment, access conditions, and the overall handling procedure. |
Capacity should always be considered together with the actual gripping condition. A higher-capacity clamp is not automatically suitable if its gripping range or operating configuration does not match the load.
For specialized lifting operations, the application requirements should be reviewed before selecting a specific clamp model.
Lifting Clamps for Different Steel Plate Applications
Steel plate handling can involve very different lifting procedures. ULIDE provides several clamp configurations to address these differences.
Single Steel Plate Handling
Single-ply plate lifting clamps are designed for applications where individual steel plates need to be lifted and positioned. The PDQ Type is included in this product range for single-plate handling requirements.
Double-Plate Handling
Double-plate lifting clamps are designed for applications involving two plates or a specific double-plate handling configuration. The QS Type provides a dedicated option for this requirement.
Multi Steel Plate Handling
When multiple steel plates need to be handled as a defined load configuration, a dedicated multi steel plate lifting clamp may be appropriate. The PDK Type is designed for this type of application.
Vertical Plate Lifting
Vertical lifting clamps are suited to operations where steel plates need to be raised or positioned vertically. The required model should be selected according to the load capacity, plate characteristics, and applicable gripping conditions.
Horizontal Plate Handling
Horizontal lifting clamps are intended for applications where plates are handled in a horizontal orientation. They can be used in fabrication, processing, storage, and other material handling operations.
Reversal and Repositioning
Some operations require steel plates or components to be turned or repositioned during handling. Reversal lifting clamps provide a dedicated configuration for such applications.
Key Features of ULIDE Lifting Clamps

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between vertical and horizontal lifting clamps?
Vertical lifting clamps are designed for lifting loads in a vertical orientation, while horizontal lifting clamps are intended for horizontal handling of plates or similar materials. The correct type depends on how the load needs to be lifted and positioned during the operation.
How do I choose the right lifting clamp capacity?
Select the clamp according to the actual working load and applicable operating conditions. Capacity should be considered together with material thickness, load configuration, gripping conditions, lifting direction, and the manufacturer’s specified working range.
What is a reversal lifting clamp used for?
A reversal lifting clamp is used for handling operations that involve turning, reversing, or repositioning a load. It can be considered when the lifting procedure requires more than straightforward vertical or horizontal movement.
What is a single-ply plate lifting clamp?
A single-ply plate lifting clamp is designed for handling an individual steel plate. It is intended for applications where one plate needs to be securely gripped and moved as part of a lifting operation.
Can lifting clamps be used for different steel plate thicknesses?
Different clamp models have different applicable gripping ranges. The material thickness should therefore be checked against the specific model’s technical requirements before operation. A clamp should only be used within its specified gripping range and working conditions.
What should be checked before using a lifting clamp?
The clamp should be inspected according to the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable safety procedures. The gripping components, body, pins, connections, and other relevant parts should be checked for visible damage, deformation, abnormal wear, or other conditions that could affect safe operation.
What is the difference between a plate lifting clamp and a beam clamp?
A plate lifting clamp is designed to grip and lift steel plates or similar flat materials, while a beam clamp is intended for structural beams or compatible beam configurations. The load type and attachment requirements should be confirmed before selecting the equipment.
