The Sliding Ratchet from Erickson The Sliding Ratchet is another innova- tive product Erickson has introduced to enhance the tie-down market, making things easier and more convenient for its customers. The key feature is the ability to customize the strap to fit each desired job by sliding the ratchet to the ideal position. With value-added fea- tures like Erickson's patented Cap Locks to make installation easier, the built in Velcro tie for convenient stor- age and the wide handle ratchet for easy use, the Sliding Ratchet is a must-have product. The Sliding Ratchet is available in two different lengths: an 8-foot or 14- foot version. Both are 1.25 inches wide with a 2,000-pound breaking strength. The 8-foot version is ideal for the power- sport industry, such as securing an ATV, whereas the 14-foot version is great for securing a load of lumber in the back of your pickup. In both cases, the ratchet can be moved to the ideal position, making the installation process a breeze. Erickson designs packag- ing to sell! This is certainly true when it comes to the Sliding Ratchet. Erickson wrapped the ratchet in an interactive pack- age so the customer can feel the quality while using the ratchet, allowing them to better under- stand the operation. If that wasn't enough, a QR code was added with a full video showing the benefits of the product. With over 40 years in the industry, Erickson has developed a recognizable brand and the Sliding Ratchet will help strength- en that reputation of deliv- ering innovative quality products.

The Revolutionary SATAjet X 5500 Spray Gun: Perfectly in Sync with You The new SATAjet X 5500 with the revo- lutionary SATA X-nozzle system will dra- matically change the landscape of the industry. It is revolutionary because SATA is the first spray gun manufacturer to offer a nozzle system based on two dis- tinct spray fan shapes for each nozzle size – available in "I"- and "O"-nozzle types. "O" nozzles have an oval-shaped spray fan pattern with a larger dry zone and a wet core to accommodate increased application speed at the expense of slightly less application control during the painting process. The film build per coat in comparison to an "I" nozzle of the same size is slightly higher. "I" nozzles instead do have a parallel spray fan pattern with a minimal dry zone and a dryer center, which is ideal for painters preferring a reduced application speed and maximized application control during the painting process. The film build per coat in comparison to an "O" nozzle of the same size is slightly reduced. The SATA X Nozzle System A larger available nozzle spectrum pro- vides more options to the painter for the application of modern paint systems, ensuring that the required finish is achieved much faster and easier. The best suitable nozzle set can be selected based on the properties of the paint system, the painting style and the requirements of the actual climatic conditions. Painters will have the choice between HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) and RP (Reduced Pressure) technology and between two different spray fan shapes for each individual nozzle size, and is available in Standard or Digital. Developed in co-oper- ation with the Porsche Design Studio. Perfectly in Sync with These Professionals "The most important new feature for me is the fact that this new gun is working more efficiently, with less paint waste and is fast," said Michael, Owner of Good Lack GmbH. "Blending with the SATAjet X 5500 is very easy. There is no visible color shade deviation." "A spray gun must be very simple: The gun must ensure consistently high quality over a longer period of time – this is what I definitely get from SATA," said Valerio, body shop Foreman at Autohaus Burger Schloz. "Due to the many differ- ent available nozzle set options of the SATAjet X 5500, each painter can now select the spray fan shape meeting their individual requirements and consistently achieve perfect results. I am completely convinced with the new SATA spray gun." "The risk of coating flaws is much, much lower. Due to less overspray, I have a much better control over the surface wetting process," said Mirko, Painter at Dogan Karosseriebau GmbH. "With the SATAjet X 5500, it has become a lot eas- ier for beginners to produce excellent fin- ishes, as the spray gun applies the mate- rial correctly on to the panel, helping to achieve perfect results quickly." The SATAjet X 5500: Perfectly in sync with you. The first spray gun which is in complete harmony with you and your individual requirements.
