About the GT Viper Horizontal Plate Clamp

The GT (George Taylor) GQ viper horizontal plate clamps are always used in pairs and are the ideal way to lift sheet materials in a horizontal position.

With a range of lifting capacities available up to 20000kg per pair these heavy duty plate clamps are ideal for lifting 1 plate at a time. The jaw opening is adjustable with the maximum size going up as the model size increases. The maximum jaw opening is 125mm for the largest model.

Both the jaws & serrated teeth are produced from specially hardened steel.

Easy to use with a 2-leg sling with a maximum angle allowed of 90 degrees.

The steel plate must be under HRC 37 (HB 345) and you must not lift loads under 20% of the rated capacity.

All requirements are met and certification is available on request.
