LSUK to supply Slide Sledge Heavy Equipment Hammer
(16/06/2008)

LSUK has announced a new contract to supply and distribute the 'Slide Sledge' Heavy Equipment Hammer across the UK heavy plant and construction industry. Demonstrating its capabilities at the SED 2008 show in Corby, the 'Slide Sledge' Heavy Equipment Hammer makes heavy equipment repair a one-man job.

Delivering over 15,000 PSI of impact force via its patented Impact Delivery System and featuring a fatigue-proof steel drive bar, the Hammer can quickly and efficiently remove track pins and sprocket bolts, rip through dirt and rust to remove pins, repair large tires by easily loosening beads without cutting and can reach between ripper teeth for easy removal and installation.

"It was a real coup for us to be able to unveil the 'Slide Sledge' at the SED show," explained LSUK's head of business development, Nigel Rodgers. "It is such an innovative, versatile and unique tool, it fits perfectly with the other products that LSUK offers the plant sector.

"The show was perfect for us because our network of 53 branches can not only supply a raft of products over the counter or within 24 hours, but we also have a team of highly-skilled technicians around the UK that can fit parts and accessories where necessary. We are always only too pleased to answer questions and offer logistical solutions that are the envy of our competitors."

Its current list of national accounts includes; The Ministry of Defence, The AA, Hewden, A-Plant, Speedy Group PLC, JCB, Stagecoach and British Nuclear Fuels.
