Other Products / General Merchandise / Other Products
The Caldwell Model CPL Leveling Pipe Lifter is a heavy-duty rigging tool designed for lifting, positioning, and aligning concrete pipe sections up to 8 feet in length in a single controlled operation.
It is commonly used in utility, sewer, and water infrastructure projects where accurate pipe placement and safe handling are required.
The CPL series is engineered with an adjustable leveling bail system that adapts to different pipe lengths, allowing operators to fine-tune positioning during installation. A built-in pipe stop helps guide the pipe into final alignment, improving installation speed and consistency on job sites.

Key Features

Designed for lifting and positioning concrete pipe up to 8 ft in length
Stand-up leveling bail adjusts for varying pipe lengths
Adjustable bail stop for repetitive lift consistency
Integrated pipe stop helps drive pipe into final position
Built-in laser target holder for alignment during installation
Positioning handle for improved operator control
Compatible with standard rigging practices
Manufactured to ASME lifting standards
Designed for use in utility and infrastructure environments

Applications

Concrete pipe installation
Sewer and stormwater systems
Utility infrastructure construction
Water main installation projects
Municipal pipeline projects
Precast concrete pipe handling and placement

Adjustable Leveling System
The CPL’s defining feature is its adjustable leveling bail, which allows operators to balance and position pipe during lifting. This reduces the need for manual repositioning once the pipe is suspended, improving both safety and installation efficiency.
The system is designed to help maintain control over long pipe sections while aligning them for proper joint connection.

Laser Alignment Capability
The built-in laser target holder allows operators to align pipe placement during installation. This feature supports more precise grading and alignment, especially in trenching applications where accuracy is critical.
(Note: laser target components such as 2x4 and screws are not included.)

Jobsite Benefits

Improves pipe alignment accuracy during installation
Reduces manual handling and repositioning
Speeds up repetitive pipe laying operations
Supports safer stand-off lifting practices
Helps maintain consistent installation quality across pipe runs

Construction & Safety Design
The CPL series is built for demanding field conditions in civil and utility construction. Its steel frame construction and engineered lifting geometry are designed to support repeated lifting cycles while maintaining controlled load balance.
The positioning handle and bail adjustment system help operators maintain safer distances from suspended loads during alignment and placement.

Compliance Standards

ASME B30 standards compliance
Designed for below-the-hook lifting applications
Engineered for utility-grade infrastructure use
