Horizontal Plate Clamps

Series Ch Horizontal Plate Clamp

Used in pairs the Camlok CH Clamp is designed for loading process machines and to lift and transport sheet steel plate in the horizontal position. A single pair of clamps supported from a 2 legged chain sling (maximum included angle 90º) are used to lift short lengths of plates. Long lengths of plate must be lifted using 2 pairs of clamps supported from a lifting beam. Standard clamps are supplied with smooth jaws, these can be replaced with jaws with serrated hardened steel teeth if requested.The integral shackle is designed to except directly the relevant sized chain sling hook. The clamp is designed for use with 2 legged slings only. Never attempt to reeve a single leg chain sling through the shackles. Note The CH1 clamps have one jaw only. The HH8 and HH8L clamps are fabricated from high tensile steel for ease of handling. CH clamps can be designed to suit any load or plate thickness.

Series ACH Horizontal Plate Clamp

The Camlok Adjustable Height Horizontal Plate Clamp is designed to lift and transport thick plate and plate bundles in the horizontal position. The clamps are used in pairs for short lengths of plate. For longer plate lengths 2 pairs of clamps suspended from a lifting beam are used. The height of the jaw pivot arm is easily adjusted via a spring locked rack and lock bar device. The clamping jaw is always positively brought into the correct position ensuring a safe and secure lift. Standard clamps have a jaw capacity of 0 to 150mm and 0 to 250mm, other sizes available on request. Note: Included angle between chain slings not to exceed 90º.

Series RH & WH Horizontal Plate Clamp

Camlok Roller Toe (RH) are designed to reduce surface damage to plate being lifted in the horizontal position. The clamps are used in pairs for short plate lengths, for longer plates 2 pairs of clamps suspended from a beam must be used.

The WH Clamp has a serrated toothed pivoting jaw as standard, this clamp can be fitted with secutex reinforced plastic pads to protect the surface if required.

Series THS Horizontal Plate Clamp

The Camlok THS Clamp has a spring/lever operated mechanism that securely locks the clamp onto the horizontally positioned plate. The clamps are used in pairs or 2 pairs supported from a lifting beam to lift and transport plate in the horizontal position. The ability to lock the clamp onto the plate enables a single operator to quickly and safely set up the plate for lifting.

The clamp is particularly useful for loading plates into guillotines, presses, punching and folding presses. The loading mechanism is pre-tensioned ensuring a safe lift.

These clamps can be used in pairs or singly.

THS1.5	1.5	0-35	6
THS3.0	3.0	0-40	10
THS4.5	4.5	0-45	16

Series THK Horizontal Plate Clamp

The Camlok THK Clamp has a jaw that pivots in the reverse direction to our normal horizontal clamps and is designed to lift and handle thin sheet plate that tends to sag when being lifted. The reverse jaw feature ensures that the clamp grip increases the more the plate deflects under its own self weight. Clamps are used in pairs with a 2 legged chain sling (maximum included angle not to exceed 60º). Two pairs of clamps supported from a lifting beam must be used when handling long plates.

Single plates only can be lifted.
