Inter Product, the Dutch manufacturer of lifting clamps, has added a Chinese-made lever hoist to its product range for customers in the Americas.

The SLT manual hoist gives customers a cheaper option to the IP lever hoist series that Inter Product already offers. SLT lever hoists are available from 680kg (.76 US ton) to 2.7t (3 US ton) working load limit, with standard lifts of 1.5m (5ft) and 3m (10ft).

Inter Product stresses that despite being cheaper, these hoists are manufactured under ISO 9002 certification and meet both American (ANSI) and European (CE) standards.

The company said: “Inter Product oversees every phase of manufacturing to ensure total quality control. Every item is serial numbered and receives an individual test certificate. Each product carries a one year limited warranty.”
