Product Description
AMH PCUA Vertical Plate Clamps – Secure Lifting for Steel Plates
The AMH PCUA Vertical Plate Clamps are engineered for vertical lifting and handling of steel plates with strength, reliability, and operator-controlled engagement. Constructed with a forged steel body and a spring-loaded cam, these clamps deliver consistent grip and durability in demanding lifting environments. The PCUA series includes models PCUA005 through PCUA050, with rated capacities from 0.5 ton to 5 tons. A manual lever mechanism is used to engage and release the clamp, giving users full control during attachment and removal. These clamps are ideal for construction, steel fabrication, and industrial material handling tasks where vertical lifting is required.
