Spreader Beams – Safe Lifting Devices for Industry and Trade

Spreader beams are essential components of modern lifting technology. They enable the safe and even lifting of bulky, large-volume, or unstable loads that can no longer be moved efficiently or safely with simple lifting gear. Thanks to their special design, spreader beams ensure optimal load distribution and reduce point loads that would occur when lifting directly with hooks, ropes, or chains.

As an experienced supplier in the lifting technology sector, SHT Suhler Hebezeugtechnik manufactures high-quality spreader beam solutions for almost every application – from the classic beam spreader to complex H-shaped constructions. All versions meet the highest requirements for load capacity, workmanship, and safety.

Different Types of Spreader Beams for Various Applications

The choice of the right spreader beam depends on many factors – for example, the geometry of the load, the lifting points, the operating conditions, and the available lifting equipment. Depending on the application, different types are available:

Custom-Made Solutions

Not every application can be covered with a standard spreader beam. That’s why we offer customized solutions tailored exactly to your requirements. Whether special dimensions, specific lifting points, or additional safety features – we design and manufacture spreader beam constructions made to measure.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Spreader Beams

Spreader beams allow the safe lifting of bulky, awkward, or large loads. They distribute the weight evenly across several lifting points, increasing safety and stability during lifting operations.

Spreader beam constructions made of structural steel are characterized by high strength and durability. They withstand extreme loads and are particularly suitable for industrial applications under demanding conditions.

DIN EN 13155 defines requirements for safety, design, and testing of non-fixed lifting devices. A spreader beam built to this standard meets recognized safety requirements for professional use.

Beam spreaders are suitable for lifting operations with two lifting points. The rigid version is used for consistent load dimensions. Adjustable versions allow adaptation to different load geometries and provide greater flexibility in use.

H-spreaders are designed for large or unstable loads that need to be lifted at four points. Rigid models have fixed lifting points, while adjustable H-spreaders allow width and length adjustments, making them more versatile.

Big bag spreaders are used for safely lifting bulk bags with four loops. They are commonly used in agriculture, construction, and industry, providing a simple and safe lifting solution.

Yes, we also offer big bag spreaders as custom-made solutions. These can be individually adapted in shape, size, or load capacity to meet your requirements. Feel free to contact us for advice.

Forklift spreaders extend the function of a forklift by enabling it to lift loads like a crane. They are slid onto the forks and secured with clamping screws to prevent slipping.

Yes, we design and manufacture spreader beams according to individual specifications. Whether special lifting points, specific dimensions, or increased load capacities – we provide tailor-made solutions for your needs.
