More than 275 products meet needs of mobile and electric vehicle techs and ensure maximum protection up to 1,000 VAC
Brampton, Ont.—Gray Tools has released a full line of insulated hand tools to meet the growing needs mobile/field service technicians and EV techs. The assortment consists of more than 275 products, including both sets and loose tools, with new tools continuing to be added as Gray expands the line.
Each tool goes through a lengthy, labor-intensive process to ensure maximum protection for the operator up to 1,000 VAC.
Gray’s insulated line includes ratchets, sockets, wrenches, screwdrivers, nut drivers, pliers, hex keys and hacksaws, as well as a selection of uncommon tools. Various styles and sizes, including SAE and metric, are available. Each tool features a dual-colored insulation that serves as a visual safety indicator. If the outer orange layer of insulation becomes damaged, an inner yellow layer alerts the user that the tool is no longer safe for use.
Gray’s multi-step insulation process is designed to meet or exceed ASTM F1505 standards for insulating adhesion, dielectric properties, flammability and durability. When the process is completed, each tool is charged with 10,000 volts of energy for 180 seconds to ensure its insulation resists potential electric shock.
“The increasing development of electric-powered vehicles and systems is driving the demand for insulated tools, and we’re here to supply that need with industrial-quality products that maximize worker productivity and safety,” said Dragos Baicoianu, Marketing Manager, Brand and Digital. “Our insulation process is second to none, and we have the ability to insulate almost any tool from our product catalog. Customers can count on these tools to have the same outstanding quality they’ve come to expect from Gray products since 1912.”
