Reusable pan head lifting screw — VGS PLATE

VGS PLATE is a pan head hex screw with black E-Coating, engineered specifically for lifting and handling timber elements. The hexagonal SW17 head with TX50 drive works with all Rothoblaas lifting devices, including RAPTOR MINI, RAPTOR, RAPTOR MAXI, WASP and WASPL. Unlike traditional single-use lifting screws, VGS PLATE is designed for repeated use in transport and lifting operations, with performance validated by testing at the University of Maine and University of Bologna. Also certified for permanent metal-to-timber structural connections in buildings.
