Hot new kit

The removal of bonded components is now easier thanks to the introduction of the new Power-TEC Smart Inductor 5000, from Tool Connection. This flameless heating system is able to remove bonded components or loosen seized parts fast and efficiently. The system features automatic or manual settings, using electromagnetic induction, which is capable of intense local heating without damaging the surrounding area. The company claims the smart inductor will only heat metal objects and will not burn or melt plastics or paints.
