170 Tonne Modular
Spreader Frame

The MULTI-F170 is a 170 tonne modular spreader frame designed for high-capacity four-point lifting operations where maximum stability, strength and configurable lifting geometry are critical. Constructed using modular corner points and interchangeable spreader beam struts, the standard off-the-shelf range can be configured up to 15m x 15m.

Enter the required frame length, width and top sling angle to check the available Working Load Limit for that configuration.
MULTI-F170 Capacity Table
Working Load Limit varies with frame length, width and sling arrangement. Select the appropriate sling angle and use the table to check the capacity for your frame configuration.
Capacities shown are based on a maximum 30° STV (Sling to Vertical) and the selected frame dimensions.

MULTI-F170 Technical FAQs
What is the maximum working load of the MULTI-F170?
The maximum Working Load Limit is 170 tonnes. Allowable capacity depends on the selected frame length, width and sling arrangement.
What is the maximum frame size?
The MULTI-F170 can be configured up to 15m x 15m using compatible modular struts and corner units.
How is the frame assembled?
The frame uses four MULTI-F170 corner units with compatible Multi-170 modular struts to form the required rectangular configuration.
Does capacity remain the same at every frame size?
No. Working Load Limit can reduce for some frame geometries, so the applicable capacity data must be checked for the selected length and width.
What shackles are required?
The specified upper shackle is 120Te Heavy Duty Bow Shackle. The specified lower shackle is 85Te Standard Bow Shackle.
Can Multisec check a project-specific lift?
Yes. Send the load, lifting centres, required frame dimensions and sling arrangement to the Multisec team for configuration support.
