The Light Source Mega-Beam Clamp with 2 Inch Extended Jaws is a heavy-duty rigging clamp engineered for scenarios where standard beam clamps cannot accommodate the thickness or shape of the structural member. The defining feature is its extended jaw capacity, which allows the clamp to securely grip onto unusually thick beams, wide-flange steel, or complex structural elements that measure up to 2 inches more in width or depth than what a standard clamp can handle. This extended reach is achieved through a longer clamping bolt and a redesigned, deeper throat profile in the clamp body. Like its standard counterparts, it is built for safely suspending major production loads—such as lighting trusses, speaker arrays, and video walls—from the venue's overhead steel infrastructure, with a high safe working load rating appropriate for the Mega series.

Constructed from forged or cast high-tensile steel, this clamp is built for maximum strength and reliability under dynamic loads. The extended jaws provide the necessary clearance to fit over beams with large lower flanges or substantial width, ensuring the clamp can seat properly and apply even pressure across a broad surface area for a secure, non-slip grip. The clamp includes a robust mounting pin or forged eye at its base, which serves as the connection point for shackles, chain motors, or truss couplers. Its design prioritizes safety and ease of use, allowing riggers to quickly deploy a secure anchor point on a wider variety of structural steel shapes found in older buildings, industrial spaces, or custom architectural elements.

This specialized clamp is an essential tool for production riggers and installers working in non-standard venues or with challenging structural steel. It solves a common site-specific problem by providing a secure lifting point where traditional clamps would be ineffective, thereby expanding the range of venues that can safely support heavy flown production equipment. Its robust construction and extended capacity ensure that even the most demanding loads can be suspended with confidence and in accordance with industry safety standards.
