Features

The lifting beams and spreader bars by OVP consist in 12 standard models.

On request, we offer the possibility to customize or custom make.

All our products are powder-painted with RAL color 7035. Hot-dip galvanized coating is also available on request.

We meet all European Directives and ASME Standards.

Custom Spreader Bars: Design and Capacities

OVP Group designs and manufactures custom spreader bars for crane lifting applications that require precise load balancing, distance between lifting points, or non-standard rigging geometries. Standard adjustable models cover SWL ranges from 1 ton up to 25 tons, with bar lengths from 1 m to 6 m. Beyond the standard catalog, OVP builds custom spreader bars from project drawings, including H-frame configurations, modular telescopic bars, and beam-and-chain combinations for multi-point lifts on tilt-up wall panels, precast concrete elements and oversized industrial equipment.

Engineering and Certification

Every custom spreader bar is engineered with FEM (finite element method) analysis, fabricated in S275JR/EN 10025 structural steel, and load-tested to 1.25× SWL before delivery. Each unit ships with an EC declaration of conformity (Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC), proof load test certificate, and user manual in English, French or Spanish on request. Lead time for engineered custom spreader bars is typically 6–10 weeks from order confirmation.
