Rigid Beam Clamp
Engineered to international standards for safety, speed and durability on every job site.
Overview
The Rigid Beam Clamp is a fixed right-angle (90°) forged steel fitting that grips the flange of a structural I-beam so a scaffold, hoist or load can hang from the beam without drilling or welding. Model TCBC weighs 1.6 kgs, is hot dip galvanized and ships FOB Shanghai from ACE SCAFFOLD.

Key Features
- Fixed right-angle (90°) forged steel beam clamp
- Also called girder coupler, scaffold C clamp or gravlock coupler
- Grips an I-beam or H-beam flange to suspend scaffold without drilling or welding
- Setscrew or wedge locks the clamp square to the beam
- Installed in pairs to clamp 48.3 mm tube and beam flange from both sides
- Hot dip galvanized, 1.6 kgs, FOB Shanghai from ACE SCAFFOLD
The Rigid Beam Clamp, also called a girder coupler or scaffold C clamp, is the fixed right-angle (90°) beam clamp that anchors scaffold and loads to existing structural steel. A forged jaw wraps the beam flange while a setscrew or wedge tightens the grip, locking the clamp square (at 90 degrees) to the beam. Used in pairs, it joins a standard 48.3 mm scaffold tube to the flange of an I-beam or H-beam so a scaffold bay, suspended platform or lifting point hangs without cutting, drilling or welding the structure. The forged steel body carries the suspended load across the flange, and the hot dip galvanized finish resists corrosion on site and outdoors.
What a Rigid Beam Clamp Does
The Rigid Beam Clamp is the fixed right-angle (90°) beam clamp. It grips the flange of a structural steel beam so scaffolding, a hoist or a suspended load can hang from the beam without modifying the structure. Use it to start a scaffold run from a steel frame, suspend a platform under a roof truss, or fix a lifting point to an existing I-beam. For an adjustable-angle version, choose the Swivel Beam Clamp.
How the Clamp Grips the Beam
A forged jaw seats over the beam flange and a setscrew or wedge pulls the jaw tight, so the clamp locks square to the beam and will not slip under load. The body is shaped to sit on the flange rather than bite into it, protecting the steel. Beam clamps are installed in pairs, one on each side of the beam, to clamp the scaffold tube and the beam flange from both sides.
Rigid and Load Rated
Built as a forged fitting, the clamp carries the suspended load across the beam flange without flexing. It holds a scaffold bay or a hoist steady, keeping the working platform level and secure.
Hot Dip Galvanized Finish
TCBC is supplied hot dip galvanized for corrosion resistance in outdoor and site conditions, protecting the clamp through repeated assembly, disassembly and storage.
Suspends Scaffold from Steel
The clamp works with standard 48.3 mm scaffold tube and pairs with tube-and-clamp or system scaffolding, supplied FOB Shanghai by ACE SCAFFOLD with OEM/ODM available.
