Revolution 360 Bagger

CDCLarue
Tulsa, Okla.

The CDCLarue Revolution 360 Bagger is strong, durable and maneuverable. Made of 12-gauge steel and powder coated to prevent rust, the bagger allows the user to grab and go from any direction as the 360 glide design dances around corners and through doorways. Equipped with a patented bagging system, the Revolution Bagger’s easy to use empty valve system allows you to dump dust and debris without ever turning off the vacuum. In less than two minutes, the user can remove the 15-mil., OSHA-approved resealable bag and replace it with a new one without ever turning off the vacuum.

Heavy-Duty, Lightweight HB-1430

Custom Equipment
Richfield, Wis.

Heavy-Duty, Lightweight HB-1430
Heavy-Duty, Lightweight HB-1430
The HB-1430’s dual front wheels help distribute the machine’s weight and provide lower wheel loads. Paired with its lightweight design, the units are able to work on delicate flooring, including tile, laminate, raised floors and mezzanines, with much lower potential for damage. Users also can get onto poured concrete several days sooner with the HB-1430 than with heavier competitive models. Counter-rotating wheels reduce friction. The HB-1430’s hydraulic system is self-contained with only two connection points. This reduces the potential for hydraulic fluid leaks, which lead to floor damage and potential safety hazards.

Swivel, Side and Vertical Anchor Trio
The Sammys cracked concrete and seismic approved anchor trio represents another first from ITW Buildex. Providing flexibility to install straight-hanging system fixtures, lighting, assemblies, and signs quickly and more efficiently, the Swivel Head, Sidewinder and Vertical anchor trio eliminates rod-bending and other tedious and time-consuming steps. It also enables more consistent alignments that mirror design specifications. Sammys anchors go in easier and require 30 percent less installation torque than typical screw anchor products. This results in holding power with less pressure, less energy and less draw on drill batteries.
