A die-forged special alloy steel DFM turn clamp with a working load limit of 1–10t per pair, designed for lifting and turning steel plates with single units usable for horizontal lifting and transport, featuring a mechanically optimized compact, lightweight design for easy operation — built for steel fabrication workshops, plate yards and construction sites that need efficient, durable plate turning and handling, not just basic vertical plate lifting clamps.
The DFM turn clamp pairs a mechanically optimized compact design with die‑forged special alloy steel construction, giving the unit dependable steel plate lifting and turning performance, with single units also suitable for horizontal lifting and transport. Available in capacities from 1t to 10t per pair with jaw openings ranging from 0–15mm to 0–60mm, it’s built for steel fabrication workshops, plate yards and construction sites where steel plates need turning and repositioning, not just basic vertical lifting.
It features a lightweight, easy‑to‑use profile, and all main body and components are optimally tempered for maximum strength and durability — refer to the technical specifications above to confirm the model that matches your plate thickness and load requirements.
Purpose-built for lifting and turning steel plates; a single clamp can also be deployed for horizontal lifting and transport operations.
Features an ideal mechanically engineered structure with a compact form factor, low net weight and extremely simple on-site operation.
Main body and all key components are made of die-forged special alloy steel, with optimal tempering treatment for maximum structural strength and long service durability.
Covers a working load limit (WLL) of 1–10t per pair, with jaw openings ranging from 0–15mm to 0–60mm across models to match steel plates of varying thicknesses.
Not every steel plate lifting job requires turning and repositioning. Where a plate is only lifted and lowered vertically at a fixed station — a storage bay, a loading point, a basic fabrication station — a standard flat plate clamp does the job at lower cost and with simpler operation than a purpose-built turn clamp. The DFM turn clamp is built for exactly that: dependable, multi-functional plate lifting, turning and horizontal transport.
Which DFM model fits your job? If you handle thin steel plates up to 20mm thick for light-duty turning, the DFM1 and DFM2 with jaw openings of 0–15mm and 0–20mm deliver compact, lightweight performance. For medium to thick plates from 30mm to 60mm with heavier loads, the DFM3 through DFM10 models offer working load limits up to 10t per pair. Single units can also be used for horizontal lifting and transport — select the model matching your plate thickness and rated load for safe, optimal operation.

If you only need standard vertical or horizontal lifting of steel plates, a conventional flat plate lifting clamp is the simpler, more economical choice.
Choose from 1t to 10t Working Load Limit (WLL) per pair based on your heaviest steel plate, plus an appropriate safety margin. Single clamps can also be deployed for horizontal lifting and transport.
Confirm your steel plate thickness falls within the selected model's jaw opening range (0–15mm to 0–60mm) before placing your order.
Built with die-forged special alloy steel and a compact lightweight design, the DFM delivers easy handling and long durability, making it ideal for frequent plate turning and repositioning in fabrication workshops and steel yards.
Purpose-built for steel plate lifting and turning; single units also work for horizontal lifting and transport.
Mechanically optimized structure with compact size and low weight for easy on-site operation.
