Power Assist
Tyco Electronics only recommends the use of hand tools for prototyping, service and repair, as continued use can cause operators
to experience RSI (repetitive strain injury). We are continually adding to our power assist range to minimise this risk.
All electric, all pneumatic and now battery powered options. With the vast improvement of battery life and small motor power, the practicality and
convenience of battery powered tools is now well know.
