 Unilift Lifting Systems

Unilift Systems
Unilift is the ideal lifting and handling system for a wide variety of
precast concrete products, particularly in civil engineering applications.
The system is typically used for lifting panels, pipes, pits, manholes,
road barriers, bridge beams, planks, sound walls, culverts etc.

The Ancon Unilift Lifting System consists of a Locking Klaw

range of lifting anchors, clutches and recess Safety clutch which locks
to the anchor head
formers used for the safe, fast and efficient
handling of a wide range of precast concrete
items during manufacture, transport and
installation. Unilift components are available in

Unilift Locking Klaw
These strong, safe, lightweight clutches suit all spherical head lifting anchors. They protect against
dangerous disconnection where there is a risk of fouling, which is a common problem when
lowering precast drainage products into confined spaces like trenches. They also help to safely
rotate civil prefabricated concrete units.
Unilift Locking Klaws are the strongest clutches on the market. Their capacity exceeds the factor
of safety of 4.0 for lifting clutches as specified in AS 3850.1:2015, table 2.1.

Unilift RA Reo (Eye) Anchors
Unilift RA Reo Anchors are used with a hanger
bar, also known as a tension bar, where the
concrete is too weak for a cone anchor. They are
ideal for thin panels and other applications where
the concrete cone developed by traditional foot
anchors is insufficient to provide the working load
limit of the anchor.
The bar is threaded through the hole in the anchor
and embedded deep in the concrete. Like Unilift
CA Cone Anchors they are manufactured from
hot-dip galvanised, forged, high impact strength To suit
D
construction steel, and are stamped with a Unilift
‘U’, the load class and length.
The Working Load Limit (Load Class) of Unilift RA
Reo Anchors is based on a factor of safety of 3.0. H S
This exceeds the working load limit factor FoS for
cast-in lifting inserts of 2.25 as specified in
AS 3850.1:2015. L

The cut lengths for the hanger bar given in the

table are suitable for 15MPa concrete and
calculated in accordance with AS 3600:2018 -

QwikTilt Face Lift Anchor Sets

The anchor is housed in a robust plastic chair
with four stable legs and several tie-in points on
the ring to prevent movement during casting.
There is no requirement for a cross bar.
They are available from stock, in pre-packed
