Products Snapshot: Tier 4i Wheel Loaders and a Cordless Framing Nailer
Cat K Series Small Wheel Loaders have been redesigned with new engines to meet Tier 4 Interim emissions standards. They are powered by Cat C6.6 ACERT engines with diesel particulate filters. The engines are rated at 1,800 rpm, resulting in lower fuel consumption and sound levels than the H Series engines rated at 2,415 rpm. Other improvements to the K Series includes electronically controlled hydrostatic drive systems and optimized z-bar loader linkage. The cab now has automatic temperature control and a Soft Touch control panel. Caterpillar Inc.; 309-675-8995; www.cat.com

The Paslode CF325Li Cordless Framing System is able to drive up to 6,000 nails per charge. It is powered by a 7.2-volt lithium-ion battery, which features a standby mode allowing the battery to remain in the tool without draining it. The battery charges in one hour and features a two-minute quick-charge feature that will drive up to 200 nails. The CF325Li uses Paslodes's fuel and nail combo packs, which ensures that each pack of 1,000 nails has sufficient fuel to drive them. Paslode; 800-222-6990; www.paslode.com
