Products & Services Directory

Since 1959 St Clare Engineering Ltd has manufactured a range of Fork Truck Attachments under the Grab-O-Matic trade name, and since 1979 a small Medical Division manufacturing and supplying Knee Braces.

The majority of the Fork Truck Attachments deal with the lifting, moving and tilting drums of steel, plastic or fibre-board construction and of varying shapes, sizes and weights. Exporting more than 45% of production to all parts of the world, St Clare are considered one of the world leaders in drum handling with their Grab-O-Matic range of attachments. In recent times the product range has been extended to include Self Dumping Hoppers, Stacker Trucks, Work Platforms, Sweepers, Pedestrian Drum Trolleys and Reel Turning Units, Snow Ploughs and Towable Salt Spreaders. We also manufacture special items to customer requirements, all that is required is a sketch or verbal description of the problem to produce a firm price and delivery.

Safety and Quality

All items are robustly constructed and can be fitted to most Fork Trucks in seconds without the need for Electric or Hydraulic connections. Safety issues are paramount when designing, manufacturing and using fork lift truck attachments, with this in mind all our attachments carry the CE mark, are issued with a certificate of conformity and full operational instructions. All frames and pillars are made from 6-12mm steel. To compound our policy on quality, the attachments are manufactured in the UK to ISO 9001:2015 and issued with Test Certificates to confirm Safe Working Loads, providing you with assurance and peace of mind.

Maintenance and Servicing

Grab-O-Matic handling aids are manufactured entirely in the UK by precision engineers, backed up by 100% inspection. Because of the high degree of engineering and careful choice of materials and treatments used, Grab-O-Matic units are virtually maintenance free and only require occasional oiling. A full after-sales and back up service is available with all Grab-O-Matics, repairs are carried out quickly and efficiently on all equipment to minimise operational downtime.

Expert in High Level Vacuum Cleaning Equipment. SpaceVac’s innovative high-level cleaning technology has already seen plaudits and rave reviews from clients across the globe. Developed as a tool for clearing blocked guttering and downpipes, nearly a decade of refinement and development has seen the SpaceVac line grow to deliver a flexible range of cleaning solutions to Facilities Management companies and specialist cleaners worldwide.

Since bringing the SpaceVac system to market, our Engineering team have continued to develop and refine the product to deliver maximum performance to our customers.

The latest generation of SpaceVac high level cleaning systems brings our most advanced cleaning technology yet – featuring lightweight yet robust Carbon Fibre heads across the range as standard keeping the weight of the cleaning system to a minimum – even at its full extension.

In addition, the entire SpaceVac range features our innovative ‘Safety Locking” mechanism as standard for total operator safety. This simple device ensures that the system won’t separate when in use – unlike other friction fit and external clamp systems found elsewhere on the market.

In addition to developing our high level Internal and External cleaning systems, in 2015, SpaceVac was the first system of its kind anywhere in the world to be certified as safe for use in ATEX Explosive Atmospheres – building a new anti-static system from the ground up to ensure complete spark-free use in these highly dangerous explosive atmospheres in the industrial factories. Built with
