Subsea Spreader Beams
Engineered for Offshore Excellence
Subsea lifting presents some of the toughest challenges in the lifting industry—harsh saltwater environments, extreme pressure, and complex rigging demands. At Modulift, we’ve developed a trusted range of Subsea Spreader Beams designed specifically to meet these challenges head-on.
Manufactured with marine-grade materials and finished with a durable epoxy coating, our subsea beams are built to perform under pressure—literally. Whether you’re working in shallow waters or deep-sea conditions, Modulift’s proven modular system offers unrivalled strength, flexibility, and reusability for subsea lifts of all sizes.
Key Features of Modulift Subsea Spreader Beams
Unlike Modulift’s standard Modular Spreader Beams which can be used subsea up to 150mtrs* and are manufactured using circular hollow sections, the Subsea Spreader Beam has an open section design, making this suitable for deeper water submersion by eliminating the risks of any cavity or pressure issues. They can be finished with a standard three-coat paint system or a project-specific option.
