Caldwell Dura-Lite 430-1-8 Composite Spreader Bar

Composite spreader beams from Dura-Light are a great choice for a wide range of applications. With superior strength and impact-resistance, these lightweight below-the-hook lifting devices let you lift more without putting extra strain on your riggers.They are also non-corrosive – perfect for marine applications – and non-conductive – so they can be used on jobsites where sparks are a concern.

Caldwell Spreader Beam Construction

Constructed using a fiber-reinforced polymer composite, this Dura-Lite hoisting beam is built to last. The lug attachment holes have steel bushings for wear-resistance, and the long-lasting acrylic polyurethane finish adds UV-protection. When used correctly, it’s designed to handle 2 million cycles at capacity!

Lifting Beams vs. Spreader Bars

Compared to lifting beams, spreader beams are very effective at distributing a load’s weight and are ideally suited for adding stability to critical lifts. However, they require top rigging to connect to the crane or other lifting machine, increasing the amount of headroom required.
