What is the minimum load requirement for this clamp? I would be using this clamp to habitually lift 3/8" thick steel plate that weighs between 375 and 400 lbs in a 36" x 98" sheet. Since it is advisable for safety and longevity of the clamp to lift as close to the max capacity as possible, if this clamp will not work, do you have another model # that will?

A minimum weight equal to 10% of the WLL is required to ensure grip. Provided you're lifting in the 300-400 lbs range, and using the clamp as directed, you should be fine. All clamps have wear parts that, over time, will need replacing
