Caldwell Model 82LA Slit Coil C-Hook for Multiple Coil Handling

Caldwell Model 82LA Slit Coil C-Hook

The Caldwell Model 82LA Slit Coil C-Hook is engineered to safely lift and transport multiple slit coils simultaneously, improving material handling efficiency in steel service centers, processing facilities, manufacturing plants, and warehouses. By allowing operators to handle several slit coils in a single lift, the Model 82LA helps reduce crane cycle times, improve productivity, and lower operating costs.

Manufactured from high-tensile alloy steel, the Model 82LA delivers exceptional strength while minimizing overall weight. The recessed counterweight design improves clearance around machinery and storage racks, while the counterbalanced body hangs level when empty for easier positioning. A curved coil saddle and radiused lifting arm help protect valuable steel coils from damage during handling, and guide handles provide greater control when positioning the hook.

Available in capacities from 5 to 25 tons and coil widths from 36 to 72 inches, the Caldwell Model 82LA is built for demanding industrial applications and complies with applicable ASME lifting standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Caldwell Model 82LA used for?

The Model 82LA is designed to safely lift and transport multiple slit coils in a single lift, improving efficiency in steel service centers and manufacturing facilities.

What capacities are available?

The 82LA is available in capacities from 5 tons to 25 tons, depending on the model selected.

Can the hook lift multiple coils?

Yes. The primary advantage of the 82LA is its ability to handle multiple slit coils simultaneously, reducing crane cycles and increasing productivity.

How does the recessed counterweight help?

The recessed counterweight minimizes interference with nearby equipment, racks, and obstacles while improving maneuverability in tight work areas.

Does the hook protect finished coils?

Yes. The inside hook radius helps prevent edge contact, and the curved saddle supports the load. Optional protective padding is also available for additional coil protection.

Does the Model 82LA comply with industry standards?

Yes. The Caldwell Model 82LA is designed to comply with applicable ASME standards for below-the-hook lifting devices.
