Specifically designed for heavy-duty work in the concrete construction industry.
Welded “structural-profile” construction.
Light Weight, High Tensile Steel.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio.
Fully hydraulic parallel opening range.
Parallel clamping movement minimizes space required between pipes.
Low-maintenance Polymer Slide Bearings.
Polymer Slide Bearings come with a 3 year warranty.
Products are rotated in a “raised” position eliminating damage to the joints.
Large pressure pads reduce the pressure on the side wall.
Durable rubber grippers are easily replaced.
Manually adjustable pressure relief valve.
Oil pressure gauge.
PWG can be suspended from an overhead crane or attached to a fork truck:
Crane Mount: For use with overhead cranes, the PWG is fitted with an electro- hydraulic power pack mounted on top the clamp. The self-contained unit is ready for use after electrical connection (electrical connection supplied by user).
Fork Truck Mount: For fork truck use, PWG is fitted with fork sleeves for easy attachment to the fork truck. Operation requires two (2) hydraulic circuits - one circuit to “clamp” and another circuit to rotate. To operate both clamping and rotation on the same circuit, we can supply a valve to split the hydraulic function
The PWG-S Series of Hydraulic Clamps are designed to rotate pipe, manhole bases and other structures safely and without damage. The PWG Clamp can be attached to an overhead crane or to a fork truck. Products are securely gripped by parallel arms and lifted while standing vertical, then hydraulically rotated 90° or 180°. Depending on your application, the gripping arms are equipped with either: 1) hydraulic cylinders and linkage for rotation or 2) Hydraulic Rotator. After rotation, products are immediately ready to be stacked on top of one-another. Results include significant reductions in manufacturing area "clear-out" times as well as reduced product damage. The PWG is also available with rotation limited to only 90° (PWG-R Series for concrete pipe).
