Vertical Plate Lifting Clamps

Choose a Configuration

DSQA and DSQC provide separate vertical plate clamp configurations. Compare the opening range at the required load designation and the lifting-eye arrangement, then match the clamp to the plate and rigging.

Compare DSQA and DSQC

Series Configuration information
DSQA Integral lifting-eye arrangement; includes an 800 kg catalog load entry and model-specific openings
DSQC Articulated lifting-eye arrangement; includes a 500 kg catalog load entry and separate opening data

The articulated eye describes the connection structure. Confirm allowable load directions and any derating for the selected model and installation.

Compare the Opening at the Selected Load

DSQA2T lists a 0–30 mm opening, while DSQC2T lists 0–25 mm. At the 8T designation, DSQA lists 0–60 mm and DSQC lists 0–45 mm. Check the individual model rather than applying one series’ opening to the other.

Define the Plate Surface and Lifting Task

Send the plate material, thickness at the grip, surface hardness if known, and coating information. Include the total load and whether the plate will remain vertical or change orientation. These details are needed to review gripping compatibility and the load path.

Request a Vertical Clamp Configuration

Provide the preferred series, model or required load, plate drawing, and sling arrangement. Add quantity and destination.
