Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Our latest collection of new products range from socket labels to leak absorbers by way of a gizmo that's marketed as... the Gizmo.

Facom

It's the little things in lifethat make all the difference — and that's the reasoning behind Facom's socket marking tags.

While sockets are stamped with their size, the stamp tends lobe on the side where it's not always easy to spot, and it's often only visible in good lighting conditions. In any case, when the socket is in its case the sizing is not visible. Viax=4 Each Facorn tag is manufactured to fit securely inside its corresponding socket, with large numerals allowing rapid identification. They are laminated for longevity and are available from 5-34mm in 1mm increments.

TROAX

Keeping unauthorised personnel out of hazardous workshop areas is essential if you want to maintain a high standard of health and safety. The Safe Lock mechanical interlocking system from Troax allows authorised access to enclosures, ensuring that doors to protected zones can only be locked or unlocked from the outside and preventing personnel from being trapped inside the protected zone.

The system features an additional safety mechanism to prevent it from being overridden by unauthorised personnel with a steel screen that prevents tampering.

Primalec

Identifying [,.:Liks on air-con systems can be a messy business as fluorescent dye can drip out when testing.

The Drip Guard from Primalec fits inside the female fittings of R134a service couplers, I/4in and 3/8in hose swivels, and similar connections to absorb residues and stop drips. It keeps hose fittings and service couplers clean by preventing drips of residual oil that attract dirt, reducing contamination risks.

MWS Aftermarket

What better way to come up with a product than have your floor staff develop it for you?

It was designed to help tyre fitters identify commercial vehicle wheels and what they need to ensure correct fitting from the thousands of different types available The 160mm-diameter disc allows users to dial in the tyre specification and type of mounting or construction then simply read off the wheel typelhe Gizmo identifies the 27 most populai CV steel wheel types, including their fitting and centring systems.

ESAB

The Aristo SuperPulse from ESAB is a further development of the pulse/pulse concept, giving full control over the heat input to expand the scope of application of the MIG welding process. It also offers pulse/short arc, which enables the welding of very thin sheet metal.

Other claimed benefits include easier positional welding, uniform penetration and less sensitivity to root gap variations and unequal heat transfer.
