Introducing the New Milwaukee M18 FUEL Cordless Tools... Designed to Outperform

You may have already heard about the new Milwaukee M18 Fuel cordless tools. The first batch of these innovative tools launch on March 1st, 2012 from Milwaukee Electric Tool and with great excitement and anticipation, we are pleased to share some pieces of information for the M18 FUEL Drill and M18 FUEL Hammer Drill launch.   Being a new breed of tool, these products are truly "Driven To Outperform".

Festool PLANEX Drywall Sander launches on March 1!

Drywall sanding is known to be a messy, labor intensive task. Festool has once again come up with the ultimate solution: the new Festool PLANEX drywall sander. The PLANEX will revolutionize the way you sand drywall and plaster with its modular design, exceptional dust collection, robust built quality, great ergonomics and quick return on investment. 

Prior to this launch, the best option for drywall contractors has been the Porter Cable Drywall Sander.  The 7800 is still a great option, but no longer the premier choice in this tool category.

The Festool PLANEX Drywall Sander is a virtually dust-free drywall sanding solution when coupled with Festool's CT36 AutoClean Dust Extractor. Its longer lasting, less expensive sanding abrasives reduce operating costs and total cost of ownership. A modular design allows the unit to be collapsed in size for spaces ranging from hallways to full rooms to high ceilings. Likewise, the PLANEX can be extended for high walls and ceilings. This tool is made in Germany, and with a robust design guarantees years of reliable service backed by a three year warranty.

Can you afford not to net sand?

The exceptional dust extraction ability of the Mirka Abrasives net products Autonet and Abranet have to be seen to be believed. Tests have shown that Mirka Autonet and Abranet produce a miniscule amount of dust compared to conventional dry sanding technology with extraction. The Mirka net products are so efficient at removing potentially dangerous sanding dust they minimize dust contamination in the workplace and create a far healthier environment.

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.
