Modular Spreader Beams
Multisec Modular spreader beams are lifting solutions designed to safely handle heavy and oversized loads using a crane. Unlike fixed beams, they are built from interchangeable struts and end fittings that can be assembled in different lengths and configurations to suit each lift.
This modular design makes them highly versatile – a single kit can be adapted for multiple projects, reducing the need to purchase or hire several different beams. It also improves transport and storage efficiency, as components can be broken down into manageable sections, saving space and lowering logistics costs.
Engineered for strength, safety, and flexibility, modular spreader beams are widely used across industries such as construction, offshore, ports, and heavy engineering.
The modular design allows for effortless scaling. By selecting the appropriate end units and combining them with modular struts, you can achieve the precise span required for your lift. Select a model below to find the specific model required for your project capacity:

Multisec Modular Spreader Beams in Action
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and Modularity Advantages
Our modular design philosophy is centered on maximizing your return on investment and simplifying logistics. This focus on reusability makes Multisec modular beams a superior capital investment compared to purchasing and storing a large inventory of fixed-length beams.
Component Reusability: Modular struts and end units can be reconfigured across various models, allowing a single component inventory to serve multiple lift scenarios over the product’s lifespan.
Reduced Logistics: Components are portable and lightweight relative to their capacity, drastically lowering transportation costs for international or remote projects.
Operational Flexibility: Easily adjust the span length to accommodate various loads—from small machinery to long prefabricated structures—by simply adding or removing struts.
Quality, Compliance, and Structural Assurance
All components in the Multisec modular range are manufactured to the highest structural integrity standards, designed to meet mandatory international and regional regulations:
Design Standards: Engineered in conformity with BS EN 13155 (Cranes – Safety – Non-fixed load lifting attachments) and the EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
UK Legislation: Full compliance with LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations) and PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations).
Mechanical Advantage: Every modular spreader beam is designed to handle compressive stress, offering a more material-efficient and structurally sound solution for wide spans than a traditional lifting beam which is limited by bending stress.

Multisec Modular Spreader Beam FAQ
Modular spreader beams are commonly used for lifting and stabilizing heavy loads during overhead lifting operations. They are particularly useful when there is a need to maintain a load at or near a 90° angle, as they help distribute weight evenly and reduce stress on lifting slings.
Modular spreader beams are more versatile, lighter, and easier to transport compared to traditional lifting beams. They can be adjusted to different lengths on-site using basic tools, making them ideal for projects with varying lifting requirements. They also allow for easier storage and transport since they can be disassembled into smaller sections.

Our beams are designed for easy assembly with minimal tools. Simply connect the struts, end fittings, and bolts according to the load requirements. The process is straightforward, saving you time and reducing downtime on your projects.
Yes, one of the key benefits is their ability to be customised. They can be configured into different lengths and capacities by adding or removing sections. This makes them highly adaptable for different lifting scenarios.
Our expert team is here to assist you with any technical questions, assembly guidance, or support you may need. We also provide comprehensive documentation to ensure you get the most out of your spreader beam.
Safety is paramount when using modular spreader beams. Proper assembly, correct load distribution, and adherence to the manufacturer’s guidelines are critical. It’s also important to avoid misuse, such as adding additional lifting points in ways that could compromise the beam’s structural integrity.
Maintenance is simple and straightforward. Regular inspections for wear and tear, proper cleaning, and secure storage will keep your spreader beam in optimal condition. We recommend routine load testing to ensure ongoing safety and performance.
Multisec stands out for our durability, versatility, and ease of use. Our beams are engineered from high-strength steel, ensuring long-lasting performance under the toughest conditions. Plus, our modular design allows for flexible configurations, reducing the need for multiple specialised lifting devices, which saves you both time and money.
