Get faster results when working on metal – Grinding Has Changed

Grinding steel or stainless steel can be tough work, especially when you need to remove large amounts of stock. Most metal workers know what it’s like to use a resin bonded wheel. The harsh noise and effort involved is tiresome. Then there are the flap wheels which gave the worker better grinding result and less noise. If you thought these wheels were great, then think again.

PFERD’s CC-GRIND®-SOLID is the new generation of grinding wheels.  Add the special flange set to the wheel and grinder. Work between 5 to 15 degrees and watch the metal stock removal. It’s extreme grinding. Get 50% less noise & vibration and 80% less dust. A metal worker’s dream product has just arrived.

Introducing Easy!Force by Karcher, an innovative connection system which combines the advantages of a quick coupling (speed of the connection) and the benefits of a thread (reliability, security & stability). With our EASY!Lock system setup times are dramatically reduced. Compared to traditional thread systems it is 5 times faster, but at the same time durable and robust.

A question of ergonomics

Working with high-pressure cleaners is physically demanding. That is why ergonomics are important. Constantly holding the trigger of conventional HD trigger guns soon leads to tiredness, painful hands and a cramped working posture. Extensive cleaning is difficult without taking frequent breaks or even changing operators. Our EASY!Force technology changes this once and for all. No more holding force. It has never been so easy to clean with high pressure.

Intuitive for safe working

The trigger safety of the new EASY!Force trigger gun prevents unintentional operation and offers maximum safety during use – without compromising on ease of use. You only need to press the trigger once to release the high-pressure jet – intuitive and simple. The EASY!Force trigger gun remains open as long as the trigger is pressed. When you release the trigger, the trigger gun immediately switches off.

Suitable for many areas of application, including vehicles, machinery and tools, facade cleaning, construction sites, floor and wall cleaning, outdoor areas and all other typical high-pressure applications.

EASY!Force is compatible with all Kärcher Professional pressure washers.

Sekisui Foam Australia presents Easy-form™ Expansion Joint, a paperless, adhesive backed, self-wound flexible expansion joint foam that is fast becoming the self-stick isolation joint foam of choice. Easy-form™ Expansion Joint is made in Australia, and all rolls include the convenient tear off zip.

Easy-form™ Expansion Joint fillers eliminate mess on site because they are paperless, and the closed cell structure is non-absorbent and impervious to most liquids.

Easy-form™ Expansion Joint is a unique, one piece extruded foam with no laminations or joins, and is supplied in continuous rolls for easy installation. As this is a self-wound, self-adhesive product, the unused portion of the roll retains its integrity and does not unravel and get damaged, so wastage is also reduced. The excellent compression and recovery properties are vital to ensure a good isolation joint performance.

Easy-form™ Expansion Joint fillers are easy to install, the product is positioned at a start point and simply unrolled with pressure applied for the aggressive adhesive to adhere to the structure that you want to isolate.

Key features and benefits of Easy Form™ Expansion Joint

Metabo has recently launched the world’s first 9 inch cordless angle grinder, the WPB 36-18 LTX BL 230. Never before has a manufacturer attempted to make such a large and power intensive cordless tool. Metabo’s newly developed 36V brushless motor with their new Lithium High Density (LiHD) battery technology, has produced a tool capable of producing 2,400 Watts.

Comparable in size and weight to a professional 9 inch corded grinder, the WPB 36-18 LTX BL 230 is remarkably well balanced and easy to use. It also incorporates innovative safety features such as an electronic safety brake which stops wheels in 3 seconds.

LiHD Battery Technology

The power of WPB 36-18 LTX BL 230 comes from Metabo’s new LiHD batteries, which generate up to 67% more power than traditional Lithium-Ion cells, enabling tools to tackle industrial applications not previously possible. The secret is the use of an all new, high density battery cell that contains a significantly higher amount of Lithium as compared to other standard cells.
