Ergonomic wire wrapping/unwrapping tools

13 March 2002 Interconnection

OK Industries' PTX series wire wrapping and unwrapping tools is an innovative range of electric and battery-powered tools that bring new benefits to installers, telecom technicians and other users. The design is advanced from an ergonomic standpoint, which includes the lightweight, well-balanced construction, a dual-finger short-throw trigger, and a long handle to mitigate pressure on the palm. These features help to prevent repetitive stresses and result in a superior design from a comfort and safety standpoint. The design also includes a captive collet nut and a recessed wrap/unwrap switch. The rugged ABS housing encases a high-torque planetary gear drive that will wrap 18 to 30 AWG (1,0 to 0,25 mm) wire, and is compatible with the full range of industry standard bits and sleeves. The PTX series is available with 115 V and 230 V electric motors, while the battery version is powered by a long-life 3,6 V NiMH cell and incorporates a low-voltage LED indicator. Backforce is an available option, and batteries and battery chargers are sold individually.
