In the stone and glass trades that separation is what keeps bundles, crates, and fragile sheet from being crushed by their own rigging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking load limit 5,511 lb (2,500 kg), manufacturer-stated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts angled sling pulls into vertical lifts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtects fragile stone and glass loads from compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction; net weight 101 lb (46 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarger siblings rated 7,716 lb (ASB-3.5T) and 11,023 lb (ASB-5T)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne ASB-2.5T spreader bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho Is This For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYards and riggers craning slab bundles and crates whose sling angles would otherwise crush the load edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: When is a spreader bar required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Whenever sling angles would compress a fragile or wide load — the bar holds the legs apart so force runs vertical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What capacities does the family offer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: 2.5, 3.5, and 5 tonne models — 5,511, 7,716, and 11,023 lb.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aardwolf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52307486507228,"sku":"AAW ASB25T","price":746.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0841\/5713\/7116\/files\/spreader-bars-10541.webp?v=1787262859","url":"https:\/\/obsidian-industrial.com\/products\/aardwolf-spreader-bar-2-5-ton","provider":"Obsidian Industrial","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
