Streamlight Portable Lamps
Streamlight has launched several new portable lighting solutions, which are wireless and enable mobility while conducting a wide range of tasks, including inspections, equipment installations, work in industrial shops and operating heavy machinery. • The Dualie 3AA Color Rite is an intrinsically safe work light that provides the option of bright, white light to illuminate large areas or a high CRI light with
Streamlight’s Color-Rite Technology for true color recognition. The feature can be used for differentiating color wires, painting and other color-discerning tasks. • The Syclone Jr. (pictured) is Streamlight’s smallest multi-function work light. Its compact design fits in small spaces to illuminate the work area without getting in the way. Handsfree or hanging, the body of the light can rotate 360 degrees in its U-shaped magnetic base and can be adjusted with one hand. It also provides USB rechargeability. • The ProTac 2.0 and the ProTac 2.0 Headlamp provide brightness without sacrificing run time. These rechargeable lights are powered with Streamlight’s SL-B50 USB Li-Ion battery pack that charges via USB-C cord inside or outside of the light. Both are dust tight and water resistant.

National Flooring Equipment’s The Rogue provides floor preparation contractors with the power and productivity of a ride-on scraper in the compact size of a walk-behind. The Rogue is an all-electric scraper with precision steering, speeds up to 150 ft/min and a fully adjustable blade angle at the touch of a button.
When developing the Rogue, National Flooring Equipment explored how it could redesign a walkbehind scraper to have all the features of a larger, ride-on in a compact machine. Legacy walk-behind machines are typically difficult to maneuver, using hydraulics to control the scraper. Instead, the Rogue is a fully electric machine, with increased maneuverability and speed—where a traditional walk-behind scraper could work up to 30 ft./min., the Rogue can do up to 150 ft. in the same time. To improve ease of use, the Rogue incorporates simple controls that require less operator input than traditional models. For example, contractors can use toggles on the handle to direct the machine left, right, forward or reverse. In addition, the Rogue includes a button to control blade pitch and angle, unlike existing machines where angle adjustment is limited by a few different attachment options.
In addition, National Flooring Equipment adapted the vibration of the machine to impact floor removal efficiency. Typically, all tooling on National Flooring Equipment machinery oscillates, moving the blade to help remove material—the contractor could not control this. Now, the Rogue features a dial to adjust oscillation, which means that, depending on the application, contractors can choose how the tooling moves to achieve the best result. This means that when removing adhesive, users can turn oscillation off completely; when removing hard goods, contractors can increase the rate of oscillation.
To improve transportability, the Rogue is a modular machine—contractors can remove weights, splitting the machine into multiple parts that are easier to carry. By introducing this new feature, contractors can easily and safely lift the machine, either onto transport to travel to a job site, or upstairs in a job with multiple floors.

S3 Surface Solutions’ S3 Barrier SL
S3 Barrier SL is a non-portland cementitious based self-leveling material that exhibits ultra-low permeability provides superior chemical bonding performance to existing concrete substrates, and offers moisture protection up to 16 lbs, MVER, and 100RH. It removes multiple installation steps from typical remediation projects that require self-leveling systems, in an all-in-one primer-less subfloor that protects finished floors from high moisture and high pH. Finished floors can be installed in as little as six hours after placement.
Additional uses include: patching compound 1-in. to feather edge, mix with aggregates to repair deep holes and trenches, as a broadcast base for decorative flake or quartz, and as a primerless decorative polished floor overlay system. The formula is safe and environmentally friendly, featuring high levels of recycled material content and emitting zero volatile organic compounds.
