Simple load spreader bar for a workshop engine crane

[xynudu]

Crank up the welder and make one of these.

Easy project.

Nice. Spreader bars are a must for lifting awkward, over length or difficult to balance loads safely

Best darn spreader I' ve seen...Cap

Technically this is actually a lifting beam, but everyone seems to call them spreader bars. They do spread the load lifting points.

A real spreader bar simply spreads a long length of chain with a length adjustable beam in beam arrangement.

However, a lifting beam has the advantage of taking up less vertical space under the crane jib.
