Lifting wedges are tools designed for vertically lifting heavy objects.
These tools are wedge-shaped, featuring a stepped leading edge to support the weight. When the leading edge is placed into the gap between the weight and the ground and force is applied, the wedge lifts the object vertically. This design facilitates the lifting process, making it more efficient.
Both hydraulic and manual lifting wedges are available, with enhancements like hydraulic pumps and step blocks to suit various lifting needs.
They are especially useful for tasks requiring precision, such as moving machinery, performing maintenance, and stacking concrete blocks at construction sites.
