CORDLESS INSULATION SAW

Tradespeople can now cut natural fibre or polyurethane insulating materials safer and easier with the Festool ISC 240 cordless insulation saw, which is now available with a 4.0 Li-HighPower Compact battery pack. Two quick and easy to change cutting sets are available with cross-set or serrated saw blades, each with blade lengths of 240 or 350mm.

GLIDER TOTE KIT

The Marshalltown Blue Glider Tote gives a smooth finish to large areas of concrete. It comes complete with 48″ blue steel round end glider, Rock-It 2.0 bracket and 4 handles, all carried in a handy tote bag. The tote is made from a double layer of water resistant and durable nylon with multiple straps and pockets to hold a wide variety of other finishing trowels and tools.

WORK TROUSERS

As the warmer months approach, Snickers Workwear’s LITEWork Work Trousers are the right choice for flexibility, and cooling comfort. The sustainable fabric technology also delivers stretchable, lightweight work trousers that provide efficient moisture transport, ventilation and sun protection.

PLIERS

From working in the smallest of spaces to safely at height, the Knipex Cobra range has a set of pliers for the job. All the products are self-locking to pipes and nuts, and the teeth – which are offset against the direction of rotation – allow for efficient gripping, holding, pressing and bending. For the correct opening width simply place the upper half of the jaw onto the workpiece and slide the lower jaw in position to fix the pliers in place.

VACUUM CLEANER

With a sealed suction of 21kPa, and suction power of up to 125W, the Makita XGT 40VMax CL002G Brushless Vacuum delivers the high output needed to tackle large areas. There’s also four power modes so users can adjust the output to suit different surfaces, and a redesigned nozzle for efficient floor and carpet cleaning.

40V POWER TOOLS

The HS009G 235mm Circular Saw is amongst the new additions to the Makita XGT 40VMax portfolio. Thanks to a large brushless motor and XGT battery technology, this machine can deliver the same – or higher – performance than that of corded alternatives.

It offers a maximum cutting capacity of up to 61mm and a cutting speed of 4,000rpm.

KNEE PROTECTION

It’s the combination of highly effective Kneepads and the Kneeguard PRO positioning system in Snickers Workwear trousers that provides reliable knee protection. Amongst the range, the company’s D30 Ergo kneepads  are made of a unique material that moulds around your knee to provide enhanced impact protection.

CONNECTIVITY

Thanks to a strategic partnership between Trackunit and Hilti, the latter is strengthening its ON!Track solution. At the same time, the network of Trackunit devices will be expanded, providing increased connectivity around the globe through advanced Bluetooth technology. It enables detectable tags on smaller tools, and the capturing of insights from equipment data.
