FAQs GT Viper Horizontal Plate Lifting Clamp
What is a GT Viper horizontal plate lifting clamp used for, and how does it help?
What is a GT Viper horizontal plate lifting clamp used for, and how does it help?
The GT Viper Horizontal Plate Lifting Clamp is designed to lift and position plate in a horizontal position with suitable lifting equipment. It helps professional lifting and handling teams move or position plate when the selected clamp matches the plate and complete lifting arrangement.
How do I choose the correct capacity and jaw opening for a horizontal plate lifting clamp?
How do I choose the correct capacity and jaw opening for a horizontal plate lifting clamp?
Match the clamp to both the plate weight and plate-edge thickness. The available PDB options are 750 kg with a 0–25 mm jaw opening; 1,000 kg with 0–30 mm; 1,500 kg with 0–30 mm; 2,000 kg with 0–40 mm; 2,500 kg with 0–45 mm; 4,000 kg with 0–50 mm; and 5,000 kg with 50–55 mm. Both the W.L.L. and jaw opening must be suitable.
Who can use this horizontal plate lifting clamp and where is it suitable?
Who can use this horizontal plate lifting clamp and where is it suitable?
It is intended for competent personnel carrying out lifting or positioning work in settings such as engineering, fabrication, construction and industrial material handling. Use it only when the selected model suits the load, plate edge and lifting arrangement, and follow the manufacturer’s instructions and site lifting procedures.
When should I not use the GT Viper horizontal plate lifting clamp?
When should I not use the GT Viper horizontal plate lifting clamp?
Do not use it when the load exceeds the selected W.L.L., the plate edge is outside the jaw range or the lifting arrangement is unsuitable. It is a horizontal plate lifting clamp, so do not use it for vertical lifting, turning or pulling unless the manufacturer’s instructions specifically allow that application and the equipment is rated for it.
Why do the working load limit and jaw opening both matter when buying a plate lifting clamp?
Why do the working load limit and jaw opening both matter when buying a plate lifting clamp?
The W.L.L. must cover the load, while the jaw opening must suit the plate edge. A clamp can have enough capacity but still be unsuitable if its jaw range does not match the plate, so check both measurements before choosing between the 750 kg, 1,000 kg, 1,500 kg, 2,000 kg, 2,500 kg, 4,000 kg and 5,000 kg options.
What UK legislation, safety checks and markings apply to this plate lifting clamp?
What UK legislation, safety checks and markings apply to this plate lifting clamp?
The product specification identifies UKCA/CE marking where required, with certification. Before use, follow the manufacturer’s instructions, complete the required pre-use checks and ensure the lifting equipment is inspected and used under applicable UK site procedures and legal requirements, including LOLER and PUWER where they apply. LOLER and PUWER are legal duties for safe lifting operations, not product certifications.
