KNIPEX Tools’ universal snap knife, the CutiX (90 10 165 BKA), features an innovative stabilization bar that keeps the blade from bending for quicker cutting. The CutiX’s extendable stabilization bar can be engaged or retracted based on application. The stabilization bar allows the user to apply more pressure directly on the blade. The CutiX also features a hardened steel pin to secure the blade. Constructed with a lightweight magnesium housing, the CutiX has non-slip gripping surfaces and two separate sliders—one for the blade and one for the stabilization bar. knipex-tools.com Milwaukee’s BOLT safety line-up includes a complete head protection solution with eye visors, polycarbonate face shields and USB headlamp options. The eye visor and face shield lenses are treated with an anti-scratch exterior hard coating and a fog-free interior. The full face shields secure into the front slots
on Milwaukee head protection. The rechargeable headlamp lighting features an ultra-thin light that allows users to raise and lower face shields and eye visors and delivers 600 lumens of lighting and has four output modes: high, medium, low, and eco, for up to 32 hours of runtime. milwaukeetool.ca/ppe
