ABSTRACT:
A lift clamp for handling of objects such as I beams has an elongated lift arm with a fixed jaw projecting therefrom. A compression lever is pivotally mounted on the lift arm and has a jaw which is movable to a clamping position against the fixed jaw. A whip wire extends through a shackle on the lift arm and is secured to the compression lever. A tag line is secured also to the lever to release the clamp. In some environments of use, a spring is provided between the lift arm and the compression lever to urge the movable jaw against the fixed jaw.
