Patent Pending
This unique device (patent pending) allows the operator to easily determine
when the clamping jaws are clamped to the correct load/tension. The device
incorporates two coloured cylindtrical pins (see photograph) that protrude
from the mechanism when the clamp is not attached properly.
As the clamp is being tightened,
the pins retract. When they are flush with the clamp, it is tightened
correctly and ready to use. This eliminates the danger of guessing
if the clamp is gripping the flange or not. Providing the instructions
are followed, the clamp can be used for attachment to the load to be
lifted. Use suffix "G" to designate gripping force indicator.
