Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the maximum lifting capacity of the GR-C Spool Lifter?
When used correctly as a pair, the GR-C lifters provide a combined Working Load Limit (WLL) of 1500 kg, making them highly capable of handling heavy industrial cable drums and spools.

Do I have to use these lifters in pairs?
Yes, absolutely. The GR-C Cable Drum Lifter is specifically designed, engineered, and certified to be used strictly in pairs. This guarantees proper weight distribution and prevents the load from tilting or dropping.

What type of cable spools is this lifter compatible with?
This specific lifter is engineered exclusively for spools, reels, and drums that feature an outer retaining edge (a flange). The specialised hook mechanism relies on this edge to maintain a secure grip.

How does the anti-slip safety mechanism work?
The holder mechanism hooks directly onto the outer edge of the flanged spool. As lifting tension is applied, the design naturally forces the hooks to lock onto the rim, actively preventing them from slipping off during operation.

Is this equipment certified for use in the UK?
Yes. Proudly manufactured in the EU, the GR-C lifters carry the UKCA mark and rigorously comply with the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and the harmonised BS EN 13155 standard.
