TECHNICAL DATA SHEET FOR
MODEL BEF- 5 BEAM END FITTINGS
Top rigging component configuration will depend on the crane hook size and type of top rigging used.
These top rigging components will need to be sized to a rated capacity equal to or greater than the
capacity of the Grade 80 alloy chain, 6X19, or 6X37 Extra Improved Plow with Independent Wire Rope
Core wire sling that is used. If there are questions on proper sizing of rigging components, contact The
Caldwell Group or your rigging supplier.
TABLE 3: Shows the recommended sizes and capacity for the hardware tabulated by spreader beam
capacity in tons. Hardware must be rated at least the minimum capacity defined in TABLE 3. for either
the Top Rigging or Bottom Rigging based on the tabulated spreader beam capacity.
