About Beam Attachments

beam attachmentsBeam attachments normally come in two forms; a clamp or trolley.

A beam clamp is a piece of equipment which is attached to the flange of a steel beam. This is without any need to alter the beam. Beam clamps offer a safe and fast semi-permanent lifting point from which to suspend additional lifting devices. Such as an electric hoist or chain block. They are typically adjustable to fit the beam width. However there are different models available to suit various steel beam sizes. They are lightweight and easy to install with a secure grip. Beam clamps are ideal for use along with manual chain blocks, lever hoists and cable pulling machines etc.

Our beam clamps are available in a range of capacities and designs, they can be adjustable or of a fixed size, can have scissor action, screw locking or bolt clamp fixings.

Beam Clamps

There are beam clamps available which suit various sizes of beams. Some come supplied with a shackle attached, providing an even more versatile rigging point. This allows for the easy attachment of hoisting equipment such as electric hoists, and chain blocks. Most beam clamps have a locking device for additional safety. Clamps are available in varying capacities, and the safe working load should never be exceeded.

Beam Trolleys

Beam trolley’s also fit to the flange of a beam, providing a fixing point for other hoisting equipment.  However a trolley is able to move across the length of the beam either loaded or unloaded, unlike a clamp which stays in a fixed location until removed.

There are three types of beam trolley; push travel, geared and electric. Push travel trolley’s need to be pushed and pulled along the beam manually  by hand; a geared beam trolley moves across the beam more easily by simply pulling on a chain, which rolls over the gears, turning the wheels and propelling the trolley along; the third type is the electric trolley, clearly the easiest type to use but the most expensive to buy; Travel across the beam happens at the touch of a button.

Rope Services Direct can supply range of beam clamps and push or geared trolley systems at highly competitive prices. Call us on 01384 78004 today.

Our girder / beam trolleys are the manual push travel type and are available in a range of sizes to suit various beam widths from 50mm up to 220mm depending on the lifting capacity of the model chosen which can be anything from 500kg up to 10’000kg. This robust trolley incorporates high quality steel ball bearings, wheel guards and a drop forged steel screw adjustment to ensure perfect fixing/positioning every time.  A geared version of this beam trolley is also available.

Geared Travel Trolley

This is the geared version of our push travel trolley; it is designed to make beam travel smoother, easier and more precise, this is thanks to the sealed, steel ball bearings. The screw type adjuster makes securely fitting to the beam straight forward. This geared beam trolley is available in 5 different working load limits; 500kg, 1000kg, 2000kg, 3000kg & 5000kg. These geared beam trolley’s are perfect for use with our chain blocks.

Beam Clamp

Our beam clamps provide a fixed attachment point for your chosen hoisting device. This heavy duty beam clamp can be adjusted to fit a wide range of flange widths, and is designed to apply the load forces away from the flange edges and so reduces the flange stresses. Available in 5 WLL increments up to 10000kg.
