WHAT ARE BEAM CLAMPS FOR LIFTING?
A beam clamp is a type of clamp that uses adjustable jaws to attach and secure lifting devices such as hoists or heavy duty beams, to an overhead beam or structural steelwork. They are used in various industrial settings, such as construction sites, warehouses, and workshops.
HOW DO I KNOW WHAT KIND OF BEAM CLAMP TO GET?
Structural beam clamps are either slated to work universally or for a specific size of beam and load bearing capacity. Check your specific lifting requirements to ensure that you get the right type of beam clamp for your needs, whilst ensuring safety and efficiency.

Beam Clamp FAQs
While beam clamps are commonly used as temporary attachment points, certain models are designed and rated for semi-permanent or permanent installation. Businesses should verify the manufacturer's specifications and ensure the installation meets structural and safety requirements.
Beam clamps are primarily used for suspending lifting devices or securing loads to structural beams. They must be selected based on the load's weight, beam dimensions, and orientation of force. It is essential to use clamps only within their rated capacity and intended applications.
Incorrect installation or misuse can result in load slippage, structural damage, or failure of the clamp, potentially leading to serious injury or equipment damage. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and ensure the clamp is compatible with the beam and load.
Yes, factors such as extreme temperatures, exposure to corrosive substances, and high-moisture environments can impact the performance and longevity of beam clamps. For operations in harsh conditions, consider clamps with appropriate protective coatings or materials, and conduct more frequent inspections.
Beam clamps are generally not designed or certified for lifting people unless they are specifically rated and tested for such use. Using standard beam clamps for personnel lifting constitutes a significant safety risk and would breach UK health and safety regulations.
