Aardwolf 10-50mm Slab Lifter
The Aardwolf Slab Lifter with Rollers is designed for the safe and efficient lifting, handling and transportation of stone slabs, including granite, marble and other suitable materials. Available in both manual and automatic locking versions, these heavy-duty lifting clamps provide a secure grip while helping to improve productivity in stone fabrication workshops and storage facilities.
Featuring a compact, slimline design, the lifters are ideal for handling slabs in confined spaces and can be used with compatible overhead cranes or forklift lifting attachments. Integrated rollers allow the clamp to move smoothly along the upper edge of the slab for accurate positioning, while rubber-lined jaws help protect polished surfaces from scratches and damage.
The manual version (AL50) features a straightforward locking latch mechanism, allowing operators to manually control the locking and release process. The automatic version (AL50A) incorporates a gravity-operated locking system that automatically engages and releases during the lifting and lowering process, reducing manual intervention.
