| DeWalt Introduces New Impact-Ready Accessories DeWalt's new impact-ready accessories are designed to withstand the added torque of impact drivers. This is intended to reduce slippage and bit breakage, resulting in longer service life. Impact-ready drill bits are tapered, feature a pilot tip and, according to the manufacturer, are five times stronger than conventional drill bits. The stronger design allows for more reliable drilling into stainless steel, sheet metal, steel studs and junction boxes. Impact-ready fastening attachments allow use of impact drivers for applications such as metal-to-metal framing, window installation and steel erection. Other impact-ready accessories include hole saws, pivot holders, nutsetters, screwdriving bits and driver sockets. For more information go to www.dewalt.com. |
Bobcat’s New Excavator Line The new M-Series compact excavators bring additional power in a smaller machine. The new E32 is a tailswing excavator with a redesigned house for less overhang, while the E35 is a zero-tailswing excavator able to operate in confined spaces. Both excavators are in the 3 to 4-ton weight class and have an arm breakout force 10% greater than on previous models. The Auto-Shift travel feature shifts the machine out of high range and back automatically, providing extra power when pushing into piles. A load-sensing piston pump and closed center-valve grant the excavators smoother handling and improved metering. All Bobcat M-Series excavators feature redesigned undercarriages with higher ground clearance in order to prevent buildup of debris. For more information go to www.bobcat.com. |
