Crane / Forklift Spreader Beam

Crane Forklift Spreader Beam

The Crane Forklift Spreader Beam is an essential tool for safely and efficiently lifting and transporting large or bulky loads. Designed to enhance stability and distribute weight evenly, this spreader beam ensures that your lifting operations are both secure and effective. Constructed from high-strength steel, the beam offers exceptional durability and reliability under heavy loads. Its robust design allows for safe handling of up to 9 tonnes, making it ideal for various industrial and construction applications. The spreader beam is equipped with adjustable hooks and multiple lifting points, providing flexibility to accommodate different load sizes and configurations. This versatility makes it suitable for use with both cranes and forklifts, enhancing its utility across different types of equipment. Easy to install and operate, the Crane Forklift Spreader Beam simplifies complex lifting tasks, reducing the risk of damage to loads and equipment. Its thoughtful design and superior construction make it a valuable addition to any warehouse, construction site, or manufacturing facility, ensuring safe and efficient material handling.

Crane / Forklift Spreader Beam – Heavy-Duty Lifting Flexibility

When it comes to safely lifting long, heavy, or uneven loads, the Crane / Forklift Spreader Beam provides the perfect balance of strength, versatility, and safety. With a massive Rated Capacity (RC Max.) of 9000kg, this lifting attachment is designed to handle serious weight in industrial and construction environments where both cranes and forklifts are used.

This dual-purpose spreader beam is the go-to solution when traditional lifting attachments just won’t cut it. Offering load stability, reduced stress on lifting slings, and wide compatibility with forklifts and overhead cranes.

Built for Power and Versatility

This spreader beam is purpose-built for heavy-duty applications. Whether you’re lifting steel pipes, timber, precast concrete, machinery, or other lengthy items, it provides the strength and balance needed for safe and efficient handling.

• Rated Capacity: A hefty 9000kg, offering confidence for demanding operations

• Forklift Load Centre (LC): 330mm for optimal balance and lift security

• Forklift HCG (Horizontal Centre of Gravity): 2405mm for calculated weight distribution

Its overall dimensions of 2600x600x410mm make it compact enough for effective manoeuvring while still wide enough to spread lifting points effectively, minimising bending or sagging in long loads.

Crane & Forklift Compatibility

The real strength of this spreader beam lies in its dual compatibility. Whether mounted to a crane hook or fitted onto forklift tines, it offers unmatched versatility on site. This eliminates the need to invest in two separate lifting attachments, streamlining your operations and saving on equipment costs.

• Fork Pocket Size: 190x65mm – fits standard forklift tines with ease

• Fork Centres: 900mm – ensures optimal spacing for balanced lifting

Using the spreader beam with a crane allows for vertical lifts of long loads, while forklift compatibility gives you ground-level mobility making it ideal for transitioning loads between work zones or loading/unloading trucks.

Safe, Compliant, and Built to Last

Safety is paramount when dealing with heavy loads, and this unit is manufactured to withstand the toughest environments. Built from high-grade steel and finished to resist wear and tear, it maintains structural integrity over years of use.

Its thoughtful design distributes weight evenly across lifting points, significantly reducing sling wear and stress on load edges leading to fewer accidents, reduced risk of damage to loads, and smoother lifts every time.

With a unit weight of 172kg, it’s heavy enough to handle serious work without being too cumbersome to attach or store.
