They feature a telescopic spread that increases in 12 inch increments, providing a versatile solution for handling many different sized loads. Caldwell’s adjustable spreader beam is ideal for outdoor applications and where headroom is not limited. Also due to them using two lifting points instead of one, the weight of the load is distributed more evenly across the beam, thereby removing the stress on one single lifting point.
