Ladder is versatile
Werner has introduced its Multi-Position Pro ladder. With a 22-foot reach and built-in leveling, the ladder is said to have a variety of uses, including acting as an extension ladder, stairway ladder, step ladder, wall ladder and self-supporting scaffolding base (plank not included).
The ladder’s sides adjust up to 7 inches for solid footing on uneven ground, with a leveling adjustment available on both slip-resistant feet. Designed for one- and two-person jobs, the ladder also features shatterproof aluminum J-locks, impact-resistant push knobs and a POWERLITE™ rail system.
Polymer-modified bitumen membrane is sustainable
The Garland Company Inc. has announced the next generation of its StressPly family of polymer-modified bitumen membranes, StressPly Legacy. Reportedly including 40% recycled and bio-based raw materials, StressPly Legacy features smog-reducing granules in its mineral surface that are activated by sunlight to chemically bond with nearby smog molecules. The membrane also was developed with biodegradable packaging, carbon-neutral shipping and a tree-planting service initiative.
Work light is adjustable
DEWALT® has made available the TOUGHSYSTEM® 2.0 Adjustable Work Light and the 20V MAX XR® Brushless Cordless 1/2-inch High Torque Impact Wrench.
Delivering up to three hours of runtime, the TOUGHSYSTEM 2.0 Adjustable Work Light features two pivoting LED heads and seven brightness levels. With cordless and corded power options, including 20V MAX batteries, FLEXVOLT® batteries or a standard AC outlet, the light can be used freestanding, stacked on TOUGHSYSTEM 2.0 toolboxes, mounted on a tripod or hung by the built-in folding wire hook.
Automatically providing an increase in power after four seconds of impact, the 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless 1/2-inch impact wrench reportedly delivers 1,200 foot-pound force of max fastening torque and 1,750 foot-pound force of max breakaway torque. The wrench also features three speeds, PRECISION WRENCH™ technology to prevent overtightening and fastener run-off, and BATTERYGUARD™ to reduce battery wear and tear.
Underlayment resists radiation
Tarco has introduced Leakbarrier® NR600 Ultra, a polyester reinforced membrane with a specially formulated SBS compound. The underlayment’s heavy-duty polyester fabric is said to have excellent tensile strength and elongation, as well as high tear-resistance properties, allowing up to 10 tiles to be stacked.
In addition, the polyester contains additives that reportedly resist ultraviolet radiation and white pigment to reflect visible radiation; the underlayment is said to allow for six months of exposure to the elements and withstand temperatures up to 260 F. NR600 Ultra can be used for mechanically attached and foam-attached tile roof systems; under asphalt shingles, slate and metal; and in areas such as coping joints, chimneys, dormers, low-slope sections, ridges, skylights, valleys and vents.
Insulation panels have zero ozone depletion
Bitec® has introduced ElastoTherm,™ a product line of closed-cell, polyisocyanurate thermal insulation panels that provide an ozone-depletion option for insulating Bitec’s APP- and SBS polymer-modified roof assemblies.
Products include ElastoTherm B flat or tapered insulation panels with an integrally bonded fiber-reinforced facer; ElastoTherm E flat or tapered insulation panels with an integrally bonded inorganic fiberglass-reinforced facer; ElastoTherm Max flat or tapered insulation panels with a reflective foil facer; ElastoTherm Nail Base insulation, combining either ElastoTherm B or E with a minimum 7/16-inch APA/TECO-rated or OSB or minimum 19/32-inch CDX plywood; and ElastoTherm Vented Nail Base insulation, combining ElastoTherm B with a minimum 7/16-inch APA/TECO-rated or OSB or minimum 19/32-inch CDX plywood—each panel separated with and bonded to five individual 1-, 1.5-, or 2-inch spacer strips.
All ElastoTherm products are available in Grade 2 and Grade 3 compressive strengths and include a roof recover board with an integrally bonded inorganic glass fiber-reinforced facer.
