Lightweight and compact body, reduces risk of health problem
Li-ion high capacity battery
Brush less twisting motor
Reduces tying time
#5 x#5 rebar up to #7 x #8
REDUCES TYING TIME About 5 times faster than manual tying. Makes ties in less than 1 sec. per tie with consistent tie strength. High speed tying saves you time and money. LI-ION HIGHER CAPACITY BATTERY Thanks to the Lithium-lon battery technology, the RB518 ties approx. 2,300 ties per charge (Old model RB517 : 1,800 ties per charge), which is 5 times more than Ni-Cd model. Less charging time means more productive work in the jobsites. Also, Lithium-Ion battery is free from Memory Effect so you can charge the battery whenever convenient. BRUSHLESS TWISTING MOTOR The brushless electric motor offers higher efficiency and longer lifetime. It increases ties per charge by 35% comparing with older model motor and does not require service caused by brush erosion or dirt on commutator. REDUCES RISK OF HEALTH PROBLEMS Just pull the trigger, this simple operation reduces potential wrist damage such as carpal tunnel injuries. Using the optional extension bar reduces the risk of back injuries.
