M&W Lifting Clamps
As a trusted name amongst customers and distributors for decades, Machine & Welding continuously offers high-performance products tested for dependability, efficiency, and quality. Their dedication to improving and creating innovative designs has helped increase the productivity of companies and promote safer working environments across multiple industries like construction, manufacturing, steel fabrication, and more.
US Cargo Control offers both vertical and horizontal M&W Plate Lifting Clamps. Both clamps types are catered to specific lifting needs and orientations.
Vertical M&W Lifting Clamps
Vertical M&W Plate Clamps make lifting heavy vertical loads like plates, sheets of metal, and other vertically-oriented materials easy to do. These clamps come in both straight and hinged options. The hinged-lug option allows you to install the clamp lug beyond the straight application for increased versatility and engagement of the clamp from any angle.
M&W Vertical Plate Clamps offer a unique variety of traits that differentiate themselves from other plate clamps on the market:
-
No Minimum Working Load Limit: With these plate clamps, there is no minimum working load limit (WLL). This means that as long as the item remains under the WLL, the clamp can be used to lift it without compromising its effectiveness. This makes it incredibly versatile for handling a range of loads, from light to heavy-duty.
-
Non-Welded Construction: This type of construction ensures these vertical plate clamps hold up in some of the toughest environments while delivering consistent performance. Non-welded construction eliminates the risk of weld failure and reduces the need for regular maintenance and upkeep.
-
Camming Stationary Jaw: The camming jaw design secures a grip on the load for easier clamping and releasing.
- 180-Degree Turning Range: In the instance you need to switch the load orientation from horizontal to vertical, these plate clamps offer a full 180-degree turning range to do this.

Horizontal M&W Lifting Clamps
Horizontal M&W Plate Clamps, on the other hand, make lifting and transporting horizontal materials easy to do. Each clamp contains a shackle for easy and durable connection. When used in pairs, these lifting clamps provide exceptional strength for transporting materials in manufacturing plants, construction sites, warehouses, and other industrial settings.
These horizontal lifting clamps from M&W are available in two grip types: serrated and non-marring:
-
Serrated Grip: These horizontal plate clamps provide additional traction for stronger holds on items with high surface hardness or irregular surfaces. This ensures the load stays in place while lifting.
- Non-Marring Grip: Oppositely, these products do not have serrated jaws to safeguard delicate surfaces for materials that need to remain unblemished. This includes polished steel and painted surfaces that need to maintain the integrity of their exterior designs.
