What Is a Horizontal Lifter?

A horizontal lifter is a mechanical lifting clamp designed to lift materials in a flat (horizontal) position using a crane, hoist, or forklift. These lifters grip the material securely, allowing for safe transport without slipping or surface damage.

They are widely used for:

• Stone slabs (granite, marble, quartz)

• Precast concrete panels

• Concrete barriers and road dividers

• Retaining wall blocks

• Large concrete slabs and structures
