Heavy Duty Beam Clamps: Load Ratings, Types & When You Need Them
Quick Answer Heavy duty beam clamps are engineered mechanical clamps that grip structural steel flanges to carry high tensile, frictional, or suspension loads without welding or drilling. For BeamClamp® applications requiring the highest load ratings, the Type BY and BYP (high friction) models reach up to 7,524 lbs tensile per bolt and 7,733 lbs frictional…
