Index to Strong-Bac® Below-the-Hook Lifters

The Caldwell Group has been manufacturing lifting equipment since 1954. It is our goal to manufacture high quality, long lasting lifting products that will safely increase productivity and reduce operating costs.

​

Below-the-Hook Lifters are devices (excluding slings) that attach hoists to their loads.
These lifters can be categorized into three types.

1. Supporting - carries the load on a bearing surface(s).
2. Indentation - grip force indents the sides of the load.
3. Friction - applies sufficient coefficient of friction to support the load.

​

Benefits your company will receive with a Caldwell Lifter:

• Increased productivity. • Increased safety of an engineered product.
• Low costs maintenance. • Reliability and durability for long lasting service.

All Caldwell lifters have:

• Identification nameplate.
• Rated capacities.
• Product Safety Labels.

Industry Standards
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has developed standards that apply specifically to the devices Caldwell designs. ASME B30.20 provides detailed information on the classifications, marking, construction, installation, inspection, testing, maintenance, and operation of below the hook lifting devices. ASME BTH-1 provides detailed information on the design criteria of below the hook lifting devices. ASME B30.9 provides detailed information on the fabrication, markings, usage, inspection, and maintenance of lifting slings. These standards serve as a guide to government authorities, manufacturers, purchasers and users of lifting devices.

​

Caldwell's Standard Quality Assurance program follows specific design criteria as required by ASME. If you would like your lifter proof tested and a test certificate issued, please specify at the time of order (there is a nominal charge).

​

Caldwell Service
We offer solutions that will increase the productivity and effectiveness of your lifter, while ensuring the safety, reliability, and compliance of your equipment. Our services include: training & maintenance, inspection, repairs and modernizations.
