Safety Clamps
The Safety Clamp consists of individual links, flexibly hinged together. Each link has a separate tapered slip which acts as a gripping member, much like a tapered rotary slip, and each slip is held in a retracted position on the taper by spring tension. When the clamp is tightened, each small slip take a firm initial grip on the surface of the pipe. Should the pipe start to fall, or should load increase occur against the slips, the taper mounting causes each slip to wedge tighter against the surface of the pipe to increase the grip or lock the pipe against further movement.
Gripping pressure is always uniform around the pipe so there is little danger of crushing thin-walled pipe or damaging the pipe surface. And, since each link, complete with tapered slip, is interchangeable as a unit, the Safety Clamp is readily adaptable to virtually any diameter. Each link changes the effective gripping diameter of the clamp one inch. All parts are made of alloy steel, heat-treated for strength and gripping ability.

Type T & Type "AMP" Safety Clamps
The Forum™ Energy TechnologiesAOT Type “T” Safety Clamp is designed for small diameter pipe 1 1/8” - 4 1/2” O.D. Each link changes the effective working range approximately 1” in diameter. For sizes larger than 4 1/2” O.D., the Type “C” Safety Clamp should be used.
The same positive automatic gripping principle is used as in the Type “C” Safety Clamp. It is ideal to help safeguard against dropping strings of flush joint tubing, to provide a shoulder to position strings of flush line pipe for welding, and many other applications.
