This type of clamp can prone to deformation of the hole in which the chain (D-shackle)
impinges, resulting in the hole becoming oval. When that is the case the clamp should
be removed from service immediately.

Deformation in this part is mainly due to exceeding of the maximum side loading angle

of 15°. The maximum loading angles are displayed in the loading diagrams 1-2.
Some illustrations have been included on the inside of the front cover of damaged and
worn (rejected) pivots and camsegments with explanations. In most cases however the

1.3 how to operate the clamp
IPH10E lifting clamps are suitable for the horizontal lifting and transport of one or more
non sagging steel plates and structures.
See illustrations 4-6 for part reference.
1. Place the clamps on the plate and exercise pressure, so that the inner side of the
jaw rests against the plate (E) (4).
2. Tension the cables or chains with the crane hook, while the inner side of the jaw
rests against the plate (E) (5).
3. The load may now be lifted, paying careful heed to maintaining constant tension
on the chains and/or cables.
4. As soon as the load is at its destination let the crane hook descend until the clamp
is fully free of load, meaning that the lifting chain is no longer taut.
5. The clamp may now be removed from the load. A crowbar may be used placed
between the ridges of the body. This will allow the clamps to be simply turned
away under the plate (6).
