| Pipe Grabs enable quick and efficient pipe laying. They work on a scissor principle; i.e. when the pipe is lifted, the weight of the pipe causes the grabber arms to lock automatically. Opening and closing movements are controlled by a switching system. The Pipe Grab has to be adjusted to the required external pipe diameter before lifting. Depending on the external pipe diameter, different Grab arms are available. The Pipe Grab should be positioned in the middle of the pipe for lifting. Once lifted, a safety lock automatically engages and can only be released manually, thus preventing an uncontrolled early opening of the Pipe Grab during operation. Their intended use is for concrete pipes only. |
Two types of Pipe Grabs are available:
|
Pipe Grab Type (max. load) | Arm Type | Concrete Pipe Range (mm) |
2.5t | 50 | 275 - 650 |
2.5t | 80 | 580 - 950 |
5t | 90 | 700 - 1100 |
5t | 125 | 1050 - 1480 |
5t | 150 | 1300 - 1800 |
