A standard-design DVC vertical lifting clamp manufactured from high-quality carbon steel, fitted with a spring-loaded tightening lock mechanism, anti-slip safety system and high-frequency quenched die-forged special alloy steel cam, that delivers secure vertical lifting of steel plates and steel structures with reliable locking in both open and closed positions — built for steel fabrication workshops, construction sites and steel stockyards that need safe, heavy-duty vertical hoisting, not just basic horizontal plate handling.
The DVC vertical lifting clamp is a standard-design clamp for vertical lifting of steel plates and steel structures. Its spring-loaded tightening lock mechanism assures a positive initial clamping force. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel, it is available from DVC-0.8 at 0.8t up to DVC-10 at 10t per piece.
The clamp is equipped with a safety mechanism that ensures it does not slip when lifting force is applied and when the load is being lowered, and it is locked in both closed and open position. High-frequency quenching of the die-forged special-steel cam gives greater durability. Jaw opening ranges from 0–16 mm on the DVC-0.8 up to 0–90 mm on the DVC-10, with net weight from 2.6 kg up to 33 kg.
Standard design for vertical lifting of steel plates and steel structures, with 0.8–10T WLL options.
Spring-loaded tightening lock mechanism provides positive initial clamping force for reliable gripping.
The safety mechanism helps prevent slipping when lifting force is applied or when the load is being lowered.
High-frequency quenched, die-forged special alloy steel cam offers excellent durability and wear resistance.
Not every plate lies flat on a bed. Where a steel plate or steel structure must be picked up and turned to the vertical, a vertical lifting clamp grips the edge securely. The DVC is built for exactly that: a standard design whose spring-loaded tightening lock gives a positive initial clamping force, so the bite holds from the moment you lift.
Which DVC model fits your job? For thin plates, the DVC-0.8 to DVC-2 (0.8–2t) cover jaw openings from 0–16 mm to 0–30 mm. For thicker plates, the DVC-3.2 to DVC-10 (3.2–10t) extend from 0–40 mm up to 0–90 mm. All share the safety mechanism that prevents slipping under lifting force and while lowering, the locked closed/open positions, and a high-frequency-quenched die-forged cam for durability.Compare: DVC VERTICAL LIFTING CLAMP Compare: DPD HORIZONTAL LIFTING CLAMP

If a steel plate or structure must be picked up and held vertically, the DVC vertical clamp is the right choice — its spring-loaded lock gives a positive initial clamping force.
Choose from 0.8t, 1t, 2t, 3.2t, 5t, 8t and 10t per piece based on the heaviest plate load, plus safety margin.
Confirm the jaw range matches your plate: 0–16 mm to 0–30 mm on the lighter models, and 0–40 mm up to 0–90 mm on the 3.2–10t units.
The clamp has a safety mechanism that prevents slipping under lifting force and while lowering, locks in both closed and open position, and uses a high-frequency-quenched die-forged cam for durability.
Designed for vertical lifting of steel plates and steel structures, suitable for various steel handling applications.
The spring-loaded locking mechanism provides reliable initial clamping force for secure lifting.
Locks securely in both open and closed positions for easier handling and safer operation.
Made of high-quality carbon steel for excellent strength, durability, and long service life.
The die-forged special alloy steel cam is high-frequency quenched for enhanced wear resistance and durability.
Equipped with a safety locking mechanism to prevent the load from slipping during lifting and lowering.
What is the DVC vertical clamp used for?
It is a standard-design clamp for vertical lifting of steel plates and steel structures.
What capacities does it come in?
The DVC series covers 0.8t, 1t, 2t, 3.2t, 5t, 8t and 10t per piece.
How does the safety mechanism work?
The spring-loaded tightening lock assures a positive initial clamping force, and the safety mechanism ensures the clamp does not slip when lifting force is applied and when the load is being lowered. It is also locked in both closed and open position.
What jaw openings are available?
Jaw opening ranges from 0–16 mm on the 0.8t model up to 0–90 mm on the 10t model, covering thin sheets to thick plates.
What is it made of?
It is manufactured from high-quality carbon steel; the die-forged special-steel cam is high-frequency quenched for greater durability.
