Milwaukee Fluorescent Lighting Tester

Milwaukee Tool continues to expand their Test and Measurement line with the introduction of a new-to-world product for testing/troubleshooting fluorescent lighting. With the ability to test fluorescent gas, check pin connections and test ballasts, the Milwaukee Fluorescent Lighting Tester will allow professional Electricians and Building Maintenance Technicians to troubleshoot an entire building in half the time.  Prior to this solution, maintenance professionals have had to adopt a replace and hope strategy…change the lamp or ballast and hope that fixes the problem.
Complete with a 2-1/2 foot, fully retractable antenna, users can easily reach all lighting fixtures. And since they will only change the lamps and ballasts that need replacing, users will save invaluable time and money by adding this easy-to-use tool to their arsenal.
Additional features include a removable antenna adaptor to increase “flicker” response, audible and visual indicators for easy readings, a built in LED work light to illuminate dark work spaces, and a rugged over-mold grip for increased durability.
The Milwaukee model number for this unique tester is 2210-20.

Rex-Cut Type 1 Abrasive Wheels

Rex-Cut Products introduced a line of small, thin-profile Type 1 cotton fiber abrasive wheels for deburring slots, gears, stampings and castings, and cleaning pipe threads.
 
Rex-Cut Type 1 Abrasive Wheels feature multiple layers of cotton-fiber that are impregnated with aluminum oxide or silicon carbide abrasives and laminated, pressed, and bonded into dense wheels. Continuously exposing fresh abrasives as they work, these long-life wheels come in 1" to 4" dia. sizes from 1/32" to 1/2" thick for reaching into slots and crevices that are too narrow for conventional unitized wheels.

Suitable for aluminum, steel, stainless steel, titanium Inconel, and other exotics, Rex-Cut Type 1 Abrasive Wheels are capable of lasting up to 10 times longer than unitized wheels, claims the firm. Available in coarse, medium, fine, and very-fine grits with soft or hard bonds, applications include aircraft production, metal fabrication, and pipe thread maintenance.
