Get Ultra Flexible with Marshalltown's New Permaflex Stainless Steel Trowels

Speak to most plasterers and they will have their preferred choice of plastering trowel, whether it be carbon steel for the flexibility or stainless steel due to their resistance to rusting. This has always been an issue until now, enter the Marshalltown Permaflex Stainless Steel Plastering Trowel. This has the best of both worlds, the flexibility of the carbon steel and the rust prevention of the stainless steel.

In addition to the ultra thin stainless steel blade, it also has rounded corners helping to give an excellent finish without catching or gouging the plaster.

The Marshalltown Permaflex Trowels are fitted with their Durasoft handles which make it comfortable to use for long periods of time. They are firmly fitted to the Xtralite aluminium alloy mounting which in turn is fastened to the blade with stainless steel rivets.

The trowels are available in 6 different sizes, 11", 12," 13", 14", 16" and 18" and all of them are 4.5" in width which ensure that there is a trowel for any job small or large.

REMS Puma VE Universal Reciprocating Saw

When it comes to reliability and performance, REMS is a brand that can be relied upon
time after time. Founded back in 1909, REMS have been developing hand tools and power tools for the pipe working industry and have a proven track record for quality and innovation. REMS embrace new ideas and technologies and as a result, are able to offer outstanding, long lasting tools that can be relied upon to perform over and over again.

One of the latest power tools from REMS is the Puma VE Universal Reciprocating Saw. A powerful and robust universal free hand saw weighing only 3.8kg. It has a 1300 watt motor with electronic variable speed giving the user greater control and flexibility when cutting. Utilising a 30mm stroke length (and when used with the correct blade type), it is capable of cutting many types of materials such as pallets, wood (even with nails in), metal, stainless steel, cast, breeze blocks, pumice, brick, fibre cement, glass fibre-reinforced plastic and carbon fibre-reinforced plastic.

A big concern for users of most reciprocating saws is the blade change operation and how quickly can they get back to work with the new blade installed. REMS have addressed this issue and have fitted a quick change blade system, simply lift the lever on the side of the machine, insert the blade and release the lever. Quick and simple. The blade can also be inserted in the reverse position for tasks that are in awkward positions or harder to reach places.

One issue that affects most power tools is the vibration the tools produces when in use. The REMS Puma Reciprocating Saw has been fitted with an anti-vibration system which reduces greatly the amount of vibration felt by the user enabling longer working times without the tiredness or arm ache often found with other tools.

Looking after tools is important and this latest model comes with a metal carry case in which to store away when not in use or for carrying between jobs.
