The MOD CLS clamps are stocked as a boxed product
for immediate shipping that eliminates delays incurred
waiting for alternative solutions, which often have to be
manufactured to order.

The MOD CLS is currently available in several sizes from 8.5t

to 27t capacity, depending on configuration, and offered with
four clamps as standard to adjust the lifting points to enable
flexibility between a single top lifting point (lifting beam) or
two top lifting points (semi spreader beam).

The pre-assembled clamps are supplied ready to fit on the Fig.2
