With this range, LTM is aiming to make the manual chain blocks as affordable as possible, whilst maintaining a very high build quality. These professional duty blocks come complete with swivelling load and suspension hooks, lightweight, low headroom, safe and easy operation. In addition to this costs are kept low by offering them pre-chained to 10m as standard. This reduces labour costs and these savings are being passed onto the customer, says the company.
The Chain Blocks are available in capacities from 250Kg - 1,000Kg all tested and certified and available from stock in the UK and Germany.
LTM has also supplemented its existing product range with the C-Force Beam Clamps. They are available in 1,000Kg - 5,000Kg capacities and again, these are available from stock and come in an all black finish, making them suitable for the entertainment industry.
The clamps come with several safety features: aside from being of heavy duty construction, they also come with a special locking screw mechanism which ensures the unit stays tight, increasing safety. As well as this, the clamping jaws are specially designed to distribute the load away from the beam flange edges which reduces flange stress and ultimately increases safety. For those who need it, these clamps can also be offered to the German BGV-C1 standard.
