Aardwolf Carton Box Lifter – 2-1/2 in. to 26-3/4 in. Grip, 220 lb Working Load Limit
Aardwolf Carton Box Lifter – 2-1/2 in. to 26-3/4 in. Grip, 220 lb Working Load Limit
The Aardwolf Carton Box Lifter CBL-680 is a gravity-latching clamp for carton boxes and other box-shaped loads, gripping from 2-1/2 in. to 26-3/4 in. with a 220 lb working load limit.
The latch is gravity-controlled, so the clamp grips as the load is taken up and releases when it is set down, and the gripping pads are interchangeable, which is how the same frame handles drums as well as cartons.

Who Is This For?
Warehouses, shipping departments and manufacturing lines running a light load crane or jib, where cartons and drums are moved repeatedly and a hands-free grip saves the handling.
The 220 lb limit is the whole story here and it is easy to misread on a page full of Aardwolf stone equipment. This lifter must not be used on stone: a single 3 cm slab is far beyond it. Slab work needs a rated slab lifter such as the Aardwolf Lifter 50 at 2,646 lb, and block work needs a horizontal clamp such as the Aardwolf Horizontal Stone Lifting Clamp AHLC-1370 at 3,307 lb. Note also that this is a clamp, not a lifting point: the crane, hoist or jib it hangs from is separate, and a fitting such as the Aardwolf Swivel Hook is what converts a tine into one.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the working load limit of the Aardwolf Carton Box Lifter CBL-680?
Aardwolf publishes a 220 lb (100 kg) working load limit for the CBL680 carton box lifter. It is a light-duty tool.
What is the grip range?
2-1/2 in. to 26-3/4 in., which covers small parcels through large cartons.
Can it lift stone slabs?
No. A 220 lb working load limit is far below the weight of a stone slab; slab handling requires a purpose-built slab lifter with a rating in the thousands of pounds.
Can it handle drums as well as boxes?
The gripping pads are interchangeable, which is what allows the lifter to be set up for drum handling as well as cartons.
How does it grip and release?
A gravity-controlled locking latch closes the clamp as the load is lifted and releases it when the load is grounded, so the operator does not have to work the clamp by hand.
