Caldwell DURA-MOD DM110/170 Modular Spreader Beam | 170 Metric Ton Capacity

Product Description

The Caldwell DURA-MOD DM110/170 Modular Spreader Beam System is a high-capacity, 2-point lifting solution engineered for heavy-duty lifting applications requiring exceptional strength, flexibility, and load control. Designed to handle loads up to 170 metric tons, the DM110/170 provides a versatile alternative to traditional fixed spreader beams by allowing operators to configure beam lengths and capacities using interchangeable modular components.

The system can be configured in spans ranging from 6 to 59 feet using a combination of spreader sections, end fittings, and drop links. This modular approach allows a single system to support multiple lifting requirements while reducing transportation costs, storage space, and equipment inventory. The longest individual component is only 20 feet, making the system easier to transport and handle compared to conventional one-piece spreader beams.

Designed for use in construction, energy, offshore, heavy fabrication, shipbuilding, manufacturing, and infrastructure projects, the DM110/170 helps maintain proper sling geometry and distributes lifting forces efficiently across the beam. Its bolt-together construction enables quick assembly and reconfiguration while providing the strength and reliability required for critical lifting operations. The system conforms to ASME B30.20 and BTH-1 design requirements.
