Caldwell Model HC-BEF High Capacity Spreader Beam End Fittings
The Caldwell Model HC-BEF High Capacity Beam End Fittings are engineered components used to build heavy duty spreader beam systems using customer supplied Schedule 80 pipe.
These fittings are designed for industrial lifting applications requiring high load capacity and flexible rigging configurations. Depending on the selected model and assembly, the system supports lifting capacities from 25 tons up to 130 tons.
The HC-BEF system is intended for use in engineered lifting applications where custom beam lengths and heavy load handling are required. When properly assembled according to manufacturer specifications, the system is designed to meet applicable ASME lifting standards.
