Inter Product of the Netherlands has launched a new range of plate lifting clamps designed for handling steel plate up to 35mm thick.
The IPN wide grip clamps are designed for lifting, turning through up to 180O and transferring plates in vertical positions.
The 1-IPN clamp has a jaw aperture of up to 20mm at a working load limit of 1,000kg, while the 2-IPN has an aperture of up to 35mm and a capacity of 2,000kg. The IPN clamps have a locking device for both the open and closed positions to ensure safety for those working on the shopfloor.
Two IPUN clamps are also available. They differ from the IPN clamps only in that they are fitted with a hinged hoisting eye moving in all directions, allowing the operator to place and lift the load from any direction.
