Beam Clamps

KITO beam clamps are devices used in construction and material handling applications to attach and support loads. They are designed to provide a secure and adjustable temporary anchor point for lifting, rigging, or suspending various types of equipment.

KITO beam clamps are a screw-type design featuring a wide, adjustable jaw opening and a left- and right-hand clamping screw for quick operation.

About our Beam Clamps

Here are some key points about beam clamps:

Attachment to Beams:

Beam clamps are typically designed to attach to horizontal beams or structures providing a point for hanging or supporting loads.

Adjustability:

The beam clamps are adjustable, allowing them to fit a range of beam widths. This adjustability is essential for versatility on construction sites or in industrial settings where beams may vary in size.

Usage in Rigging and Lifting:

Beam clamps are frequently used in conjunction with hoists or other lifting equipment. They provide a secure anchor point for lifting and moving heavy loads.

Material Handling:

In material handling applications, beam clamps are used to suspend or support items such as chain hoists, lifting slings, or other rigging equipment.

Construction and Maintenance:

Beam clamps are commonly used in construction for tasks such as installing HVAC systems, lifting steel beams, or positioning heavy equipment. They are also useful for maintenance work on overhead structures.

Safety Considerations:

It’s crucial to use beam clamps within their specified load capacities and according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Material and Construction:

The beam clamps are made of durable materials that are corrosion-resistant to ensure weather resistance, strength and reliability in demanding applications. The TK series design is optimised for the handling of round slings.

FAQs

Yes, beam clamps are commonly used for lifting applications. They provide a temporary, secure and adjustable attachment point on horizontal beams or structures, allowing for the suspension of loads. Beam clamps are often used in conjunction with hoists, chain blocks, to lift and move heavy objects.

Select the Right Beam Clamp: Choose a beam clamp that is appropriate for the size and type of the beam you are working with. Ensure that it has the load capacity required for your application.

Inspect the Beam: Before attaching a beam clamp, inspect the structural beam to ensure it is in good condition and can support the intended load.

Positioning: Identify the location on the beam where you want to attach the beam clamp. Ensure it is a suitable location that won’t compromise the structural integrity of the beam.

Install the Beam Clamp: Open the clamp and position it around the beam at the chosen location. Close the clamp securely around the beam by tightening the adjusting screw or bolt. Use the appropriate tools, such as a wrench or socket set, to ensure a tight fit.

Alignment: Make sure the beam clamp is aligned correctly with the load or fixture you are attaching. KITO beam clamps are certified for use in diagonal tension without reducing the load-bearing capacity (up to 45° transverse to the beam and 15° diagonal lengthwise to the beam.

Attach the Load: Once the beam clamp is securely in place, attach the load or fixture using the provided attachment point on the beam clamp.
