MCS – Manual Clamp with Spindle

MCS – Manual Clamp with Spindle:
Roll or Drum Handling Solution for Lighter Loads

This roll lifter or drum handling tool – the manual clamp with spindle (MCS) – uses a spindle with a handle to clamp two gripping hands around a load, such as a drum, a roll or an another cylindrical object.

This is a simple solution to safely grip loads of varying geometry up to 80 kg.

In the case of loads with fixed dimensions, see our Manual Clamp (MC) or for heavier loads the Manual Linear Clamp (MLC).

For similar electrically powered lifting tools see the Electric Clamp (EC) or the Electric Linear Clamp (ELC).

Features

Easy customization: dimensions can be modified to customer specifications.
Rugged construction for industrial use. With its all-stainless steel construction, the MCS is built to last and for use in demanding industrial environments.
Available in hygienic design for use in cleanrooms and the food/beverage industry.
