Precision, quality and long-lasting
sharpness are the hallmarks of
these superb new products.
Hultafors Tools has launched a
new range of ‘Snap-Off’ Knives for
professional craftsmen and women.
With 13 different knives and 4
long-lasting precision blades, these
all-round, ergonomic knives are
designed and built to suit a wide
range of jobs on site.
From industrial and warehouse
applications to specialist work
on site – from like cutting boxes
open and shaping plasterboard, to
trimming flooring and paring cables.
Symmetrically designed so that
the blades can turned over, they’re
adaptable for both left and right
hand use so that left handed
craftsmen and women can adapt
the knife rather than their own
usage. What’s more, the blades are
available in three widths of 9, 18,
and 25mm, with different blends of
sharpness and long life built in to
suit regular hard work on site.

Festool welcomes a new addition
to the 18-volt family: The new AGC
18 cordless angle grinder boasts
a durable design and perfect
ergonomic features for cutting
work.“With the new AGC 18, we
are offering a battery-operated
powerhouse that sets new standards
both in terms of durability and with
its excellent ergonomics. The new
cordless angle grinder is suitable
for carpenters, joiners and painters
equally, as it can be used to complete
cutting tasks and small sanding jobs
on construction sites without any
cables,” explains José Kunze, trained
carpenter and application specialist
at Festool. Clever detail: The compact
powerhouse fits into the Systainer
with the battery and sanding tool
fitted – so it takes no time at all
to pack and unpack. The lockable
spindle and quick-action clamping
nut easily ensure fast disc changes
while working without the need for
tools. The AGC 18 also impresses
with regard to ergonomics: The on/
off switch is ideally positioned for
cutting tasks – the entire device is
perfectly balanced. In addition, the
EC-TEC motor offers particularly
smooth operation and low vibrations.
To achieve this result, the motor and
housing have been disconnected.
The new cordless angle grinder will
be available at specialist retailers
from September 2019. Visit
