SPOTLIGHT UNIFLEX says due to their high performance, crimping precision, robustness and compact dimensions, its mobile hydraulic crimpers are appreciated all over the world. With an innovative high-pressure unit, UNIFLEX now offers a practical accessory, i.e., an ingeniously simple external drive. For unbeatable mobility, UNIFLEX says its new battery-driven EM 1SB cutting machine cuts hydraulic and industrial hoses up to an outside diameter of SAE R12 1 1 ⁄ 4 ” like a hot knife through butter. Weighing only 7 kg, the device is extremely compact, can be fixed quickly and guarantees clean cuts – thanks to the TM C high-quality cutting blade and the extra-long fixing bolts for the workpieces to be cut. t | +49 (0) 6039/9171-0 e | info@uniflex.de UNPLUG THE PLUG, BE MOBILE COMPRESSED AIR ABAC UK www.abacaircompressors.com FLUID POWER PRIMARY FLUID POWER LIMITED www.primaryfp.co.uk AIRLINE ACCESSORIES INDEQUIP www.indequip.co.uk AIRLINE ACCESSORIES WORTHINGTON CREYSSENSAC www.worthington-creysannac.com FILTERS HY-PRO FILTRATION www.hyprofiltration.com LUBRICANTS BTLS – HAYLEY GROUP www.lubricantsupplies.co.uk H&P WEB LOCATOR www.hpmag.co.uk AB COMPONENTS, the filtration specialist based in Ilkeston, has added the brand Taisei Kogyo to its expanding range of suppliers.

PCL’s core lines of couplings – Airflow, Vertex and XF-Euro – are now manufactured with a distinctive blue silicone band to define them as genuine “Made in Sheffield” products. PCL says it is so sure of the quality of its new, improved coupling, it now comes with an extended 5-year warranty, as does the industry- proven Safeflow Safety Coupling, which features a blue sticker as the PCL mark of authenticity. t | 0114 248 2712 e | sales@pclairtechnology.com w | www.pclairtechnology.com “MADE IN SHEFFIELD” COUPLING THORITE says most industrial customers have experience of the standard service agreement; generally a one-size-fits-all answer to customer care, which is good in certain circumstances, but fails in several ways where there are some elements – and therefore cost – that some customers have very little use for. With this in mind, Thorite says it has introduced a completely new concept to after-sales customer care, resulting in a comprehensive aftermarket solutions package that gives customers more added value and a more focussed service. Thorite is recognised industry-wide for expertise in pneumatics, fluid power, hydraulics, compressors, and vacuum equipment, distributing the world’s market-leading brands through a UK-based network of 11 sales & service centres. t | 0800 0341 041 w | www.thorite.co.uk AFTERMARKET SOLUTIONS PACKAGE
