Kassel Kerb Grab

The Kassel Kerb Grab is a heavy-duty mechanical lifter engineered specifically for handling bus stop kerbs. Because Kassel kerbs feature a distinct, concave profile that prevents bus tyre damage, their centre of gravity is offset. This grab overcomes that imbalance with an adjustable lifting ring, ensuring a stable, horizontal lift.

Handling Asymmetrical Kerbs

Standard lifting grabs struggle with the uneven weight distribution of Kassel kerbs, often resulting in tilted loads that are difficult to position. The Kassel Kerb Grab resolves this through its adjustable offset lifting ring.

By manually shifting the lifting ring along the top rail, groundworkers can align the attachment's lifting point with the kerb’s true centre of gravity. This ensures an even lift when placing kerbs in bus stop installations.

Adjustable Gripping Width

The grab accommodates a wide range of block sizes, featuring an adjustable opening width ranging from 50mm up to 460mm. Adjustments are simple and robust, allowing site teams to secure the jaws without requiring specialist tools. Combined with high-friction rubber grippers (420mm length), the unit ensures a secure hold without damaging the concrete face of the kerb.
