Master Lock is recognized around the world as the authentic, enduring name in padlocks and security products. Since our founding in 1921, we have worked hard to earn and maintain the trust of our customers by delivering on our promise of strength and quality and by continually setting new standards for lock design, application and performance. As the largest global manufacturer and marketer of padlocks, we continue to build our founder’s passion for innovation, quality and compelling value into our expanding lines of security solutions.

Master Lock Chain Gang There is a saying that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. When it comes to security, there is no better explanation of why it is so important to look at a security solution in its entirety.

There is no point in having the toughest padlocks, but then using them with a sub-standard chain or cable. The thieves will just leave the padlocks and attack the weak chain or cable in order to gain access.

different lengths and diameters, they are also coated in plastic to prevent scratching. Each end has a ready-made loop to facilitate a padlock. Braided cable is more resistant to cutting then normal wound cable so offers increased security. The Python infinitely adjustable cable adds to this category and is ideal for securing equipment and moveable items. Also available is a vast range of combination and keyed cables.

Master Lock has a range of chains and cables to suit every requirement.

For convenience, a range of galvanised chain and padlock sets are available.

The round link chain is housed in a nylon sheath and the padlock rubber coated for protection. Various colour options available. These sets are ideal for bicycles and motorcycles and situations where less security is required.

Top of the range is the Master Lock hardened square link chain, available in pre-manufactured lengths and shackle diameters. These chains are twice as tough and resistant to bolt cutters and angle grinders than standard hardened chains. They are also housed in a plastic sheath for protection against scratching.

SECRET SELLING TOOLS SELECTING A PAINT CONTRACTOR

A guide to paint contractors Selling paint is a hard enough task and so is selecting a paint contractor for your customer. With these tips you can guide them in the right direction.

Selecting the correct paint contractor for commercial and domestic projects needs careful consideration, says Tara Benn, executive director of the SA Paint Manufacturing Association (SAPMA).

SAPMA membership Benn says SAPMA membership includes several reputable paint contractors whose

// Selecting the correct paint contractor for commercial and domestic projects needs careful consideration // SAPMA executive director, Tara Benn

work and professionalism were carefully vetted before being granted membership.

“Ideally, therefore, the first step in the selection process should be to contact SAPMA for guidance. But there are also some other aspects that the client could personally undertake to verify the status of the contractor he or she is considering,” she advises.

Check references “Check the contractor’s website references and speak to the company’s last few clients as well. Ask these people if they would be prepared to work with the contractor again and ask for the reason if not. Establish if the contract was completed on time, and whether the contractor exceeded the

Communication Benn says the professionalism of a contractor could also be gauged by the level of communication experienced at the outset.

“Instant replies are not necessary or always possible, but there should be some response within 24 hours. A professional contractor should also state the details of his company’s process and the steps that will be taken to paint a property. A starting date, estimated time of completion and as mentioned, the type of paint being used, should be in the contract — and communicated directly to a client as well.”

Finally, the client should stipulate post-project cleaning up as part of the contract. “Professional painters will clean up after their work is complete, and properly dispose of supplies and any hazardous waste,” Benn adds.

But if you want to go far, go together.”

Recently, the relocation of the Vicker factory to Wadeville, Germiston was successfully completed, with investments made into new and updated machinery; the rollout of improved maintenance programmes; and the retention of the Vicker workforce, who bring with them the brand’s 80-plus years of expertise. And with the relocation complete, Lasher is up to full production and prepared to meet the market’s needs with regards to its offering of elite building tools that are proudly local and manufactured under the ISO9001 quality process.

Since its humble beginnings with a single product in 1940, their range has grown to meet the needs of the market – and to do so always with distinction.

In 2019, Vicker was formally combined with Lasher Tools, who’ve strived always to stay true to their local roots and continue their century-long traditions of ‘Made in South Africa’ excellence.

By combining Vicker’s globally recognised trowels and tools with Lasher’s industry standing as a tool and trade service provider that customers can trust, the result is an alliance dedicated to providing you with a premium quality product range that does what you need – and does it excellently.

NEWS ON THE MOVE

New jacket for old classic The Toyota Dyna is nothing new to the DIY and hardware industry. It has been a reputable delivery vehicle favourite for many years and will in the future.

THE HINO 200 310 The Hino 200 310 will continue to be sold in this classification category and changes to the truck from the Dyna are mainly cosmetic, being a Hino badge above the front grille, flanked by badges bearing the Hino name and 200 series designation, while the 310-model number will be a decal ion applied to the leading edge of the lower section of the doors. The grille has been revised in line with Hino styling.

There is Hino branding on the steering wheel and the instrument panel has been redesigned for improved visibility and readability. It features a larger speedometer as the central focus with revised information and warning lights, together with an Recent news from Toyota announces the popular Toyota Dyna light truck will in future be marketed as part of the Hino model range as the 200 Series.

The previous Dyna 150 becomes the Hino 300-310, with the ‘3’ denoting a 3-ton load capability while the ‘10’ is a short form for the 100-horsepower engine. The reason for this change in identity is that responsibility for the former Dyna range has moved from Toyota into the Hino stable.

DYNA HISTORY “The Dyna, which arrived in South Africa in 1965, was the first truck to be offered for sale by the fledgling Toyota South Africa, which was established in 1961,” explained Ernie Trautmann, vice president of Hino SA. “Since then, more than 50 000 Dynas have been sold in South Africa in an uninterrupted run of 56 years, making it one of the longest running vehicle nameplates on the local market.

// The Dyna made his first appearance in South Africa in 1965 and was the first truck to be offered for sale by the fledgling Toyota South Africa, which was established in 1961 //

“During this time, the Dyna has not only proved extremely popular in the medium truck segment, but it has also built up an enviable reputation for productivity, reliability and durability. Customer loyalty for this model is also very high. Currently one of the Dynas’s strongest selling points is the fact that it slots into the below 3 500 kg GVM category, which means the driver needs a B-type or Code 8 licence to drive it and not a full truck licence.”

LCD monitor.

FEATURES Two new, practical features for the Hino 200 are a reverse buzzer and the fitment of a Bluetooth radio which permits safer, handsfree use of a cell phone by the driver.

The powertrain remains unchanged with a normally aspirated 3-litre diesel engine that develops 66kW of power at 4 000rpm and 192 Nm of torque at 2 000rpm. A five-speed manual gearbox transfers power to the rear wheels.

“The Hino 200-310 will be offered by the countrywide network of Toyota dealers as well as the Hino truck dealers, as was the case with the Dyna,” concluded Trautmann.

Quadrive TPC 18/4 cordless percussion drill and the TDC 18/4 cordless drill, all have KickBackStop technology, which stops the motor within a split second when kickback is detected.

Festools product manager, Boris Seyfried says, “Dangerous kickbacks will be a thing of the past with our new cordless plunge-cut saw as we have made it safer with the new unique KickBackStop.”

Should kickback occur when sawing and plunging into the workpiece, Festool’s unique KickBackStop technology ensures that the saw blade stops in the blink of an eye.

“The riving knife of the KickbackStop rests on the guide rail or on the material that is to be processed. If kickback is detected when sawing or plunging into the workpiece, the emergency braking is triggered, minimising the risk of injury”.
