Frimeda LIFTING ANCHOR SYSTEM-11

F rimeda L iftin g A nchor S y stem General information The FRIMEDA lifting anchor system consists of a steel component inset into the concrete (the anchor) and a lifting component (the ring clutch). The prefabricated concrete component is lifted and transported by means of a ring clutch, which is locked to the anchor casted into concrete. The design and shape of the ring clutch and anchor enable the lifting of the load in almost any load direction. The ring clutch can be unlocked either manually, direct at the clutch head, or by remote release. The anchors are made of special-quality flat steel....
