A roundup of the latest tool and equipment offerings.
Narrow jaw profile to reach
into confined areas
Features an adjustable head
with three positions
The KNIPEX 7 1/4" Pliers Wrench is lighter in
weight than the previous model and features an
increased jaw capacity from 1-3/8" to 1-1/2", as well
as a narrow jaw profile for accessibility into confined areas. The Pliers Wrench is available in black
atramentized finish (No. 86 01 180) or in the original
chrome plated finish (No. 86 03 180). The parallel
jaws evenly distribute force for a secure grip that
is 10 times the pressure applied to the handles,
the company says. In addition, it includes recessed
areas for grip, laser-etched markings in both metric
and imperial, and a pinch guard to prevent operators' fingers being pinched.
The Mighty Seven 3" Flex Head Air Cutoff Tool,
No. QC-263, features an adjustable head with three
positions controlled by a quick-adapt locking ring. It
also offers a forward and reversible lever to change
cutting direction and a spring loaded 360-degree
keyless guard and exhaust port to direct sparks,
debris, and air away from the work area. In addition,
the cut-off tool has a 0.8hp motor to resist stalling
when cutting stock materials, tubing, corroded
bolts, and other cutting applications. It is versatile
and backed by a three-year warranty.

is a combination of robustness and simplicity,
the company says. The automatic tire changer is
designed to demount truck wheels easier. It has
a rim diameter range of 11" to 58" and features a
maximum rim width of 57", maximum tire diameter
of 98", and maximum tire width of 63".

grip is comfortable to hold and the rear exhaust
with 360-degree swivel allows the user to vent the
exhaust in any direction. The tool has a low air consumption of 4.1 cfm and weighs 1.8 lbs.
The Cal-Van Tools Heavy Duty Yoke Puller, No.
497, is designed to fit multiple sizes of Spicer and
Meritor full-round and half-round yokes. It can
also be used on differentials, drive axles, and drive
shafts without damaging other components. The
set is constructed of high-grade steel with a black
oxide finish for strength and durability. It is to be
used with impact wrenches up to 3/4" drive to create the force needed to free stuck components.
