Hilti Cordless Drill Driver SF 10W-A18

Hilti
Tulsa, Okla.

The new Hilti Cordless drill driver SF 10W-A18 is the first cordless tool to deliver corded performance and reliability for high torque and high-speed applications. In high-torque applications like four-inch-hole saw drilling in wood or metal, this drill driver performs as if it were corded. Users have more options to improve drilling performance, due to more rpm options, which allows them to shift into high gear and punch one-inch holes through multiple layers of plywood.

Husqvarna PG 820 RC
A remote-controlled floor grinder from Husqvarna makes its first appearance on the market. The PG 820 RC offers high productivity, powerful performance, and outstanding ergonomics. It is easy to transport to and from the jobsite, thanks to its long battery life. The increased productivity derives from more machine hours per day, as the operator can correct hoses and power cord, move the dust collector, inspect the floor, and prepare the next set of tools, all while the machine is still running and executing the job.
