Yes. With a pair of BEF-8 end fittings and 8" Schedule 40 A53 Grade B pipe, capacity runs from 39 tons at a 4–10 ft span down to 15 tons at 36 ft. These ratings require a top sling angle of at least 45° from horizontal.
The full capacity chart and pipe and bolt requirements are in the Caldwell BEF spec sheet (PDF). For spans or angles outside the chart, contact us and we'll check with Caldwell.
