DE-PL Non-Marking Vertical Plate Clamp (250 kg - 500 kg WLL)

Ensure the safe, efficient, and damage-free handling of your materials with the DE-PL Vertical Plate Clamp. Expertly engineered for transporting single sheets and structural components in a purely vertical position, this premium lifting clamp is the ideal solution for workshops, construction sites, and manufacturing facilities where surface protection is paramount.

Handling polished, sensitive, or easily marked materials can be challenging with standard steel jaws. The DE-PL clamp completely eliminates this risk by utilizing advanced non-scratching lifting technology, guaranteeing a secure hold without compromising the finish of your high-value load.
