Toyolift Vertical Lifting Clamp
Engineered for Safety. Built for Heavy Lifts.
What is a TL-VC Vertical Lifting Clamp?
A TOYOLIFT Vertical Lifting Clamp (Model: TL-VC) is a heavy-duty industrial lifting tool designed for the secure vertical transport, lifting, and turning of steel plates and structures. Engineered for high-capacity applications, the TL-VC series is the "workhorse" of the TOYOLIFT vertical range, offering robust construction for demanding environments like shipyards, steel service centers, and heavy fabrication shops.

Key Performance Features:
- Broad Capacity Range: The vertical clamps are available with rated capacities from 0.8 Ton (TL-VC008) up to a maximum of 16 Ton (TL-VC160).
- Safety Tested Load: Every clamp model is tested to a load that is twice its rated capacity; for example, a 16 Ton clamp is subject to a tested load of 32 Ton.
- Diverse Jaw Opening: The models are designed to accommodate a range of plate thicknesses, with jaw openings supporting material up to 100 mm (for the larger TL-VC models).
Safety and Compliance Standards
The TOYOLIFT Vertical Lifting Clamps (Model: TL-VC) are manufactured in accordance with rigorous safety requirements established for non-fixed load lifting attachments. The production standards for this category of plate and beam lifting clamps consistently comply with the European safety standard EN 13155.
What is a TL-LC Vertical Lifting Clamp?
A TOYOLIFT Vertical Lifting Clamp (Model: TL-LC) is a high-performance industrial tool specifically engineered for the safe and secure vertical transport of steel plates and structures. These clamps are essential for metal fabrication, shipyard work, and construction environments where heavy materials must be rotated or lifted vertically.

Key Performance Features:
- Rigorous Safety Testing: Each clamp is engineered with a 2:1 safety factor, ensuring that every unit is proof-tested at 2 times its rated working load limit to guarantee maximum security during vertical operations.
- Versatile Jaw Capacity: The series features a wide range of jaw openings, starting from 0-22 mm for the 1-ton model and extending up to 0-50 mm for the 5-ton model, allowing for the handling of various plate thicknesses.
- Optimized Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Designed for portability and efficiency, the TL-LC maintains a compact profile with net weights ranging from a light 3.6 kg (1-ton capacity) to 17 kg for the heavy-duty 5-ton model.
Safety and Compliance Standards
The TOYOLIFT Vertical Lifting Clamp (Model: TL-LC) is engineered to meet rigorous industrial safety requirements, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments like shipyards and construction sites. Every unit is subjected to a 200% proof test at double its rated working load limit to verify structural integrity before being put into service. The series is designed with a high safety factor and aligns with international standards such as EN 13155 for non-fixed load lifting attachments. To prevent accidental disengagement, even when tension is released, the clamp features a manual spring-loaded safety locking mechanism for maximum security.
FAQ
Q: What is the main function of the Vertical Lifting Clamp?
Vertical Lifting Clamps (Models TL-LC and TL-VC) are designed to securely grip and lift plates, beams, and structural materials while holding them in an upright or vertical orientation.
Q: What is the maximum rated load capacity available in this vertical clamp series?
