Matching Lifting Clutches with Panel Anchors

lifting clutches

Pre-cast and panel lifting clutches are one of our most popular rental items.

We stock both the foot anchor type (often referred to as mushroom anchor) and edge lifters (called donut clutches) and hold Ancon, Olivetti, Philip and Reid brands.

Some manufacturers have changed the specifications of clutches in recent times. The Orange 7t Reid is now superseded by the 3DX 8.5t model and Ancon 10t that was purple is now a 10t “narrow” in dark green.

We regularly get asked if one brand will fit another? Basically the answer is no, each manufacturer panel anchor is designed to be lifted by the same manufacturer clutch. We suggest you determine the anchors through the pre-cast yard and should be specified on shop drawings. Using the wrong clutch and anchor combination might risk damaging the panel with spalling, clutch jammed in the void and even worse potential human safety issues when lifting.

We hold more than 120 clutches across the range and can offer multiples of all for multipoint lifts, we also stock a large quantity of snatch block/wire ropes, equalising triangles and spreader beams to safely lift any pre-cast.
