Cable Companion –
pulling cable without the snags SWA’s new, patented Cable Companion solves the problem of cables snagging on the drum, saving busy installers time and money. Its simple but ingenious swinging tension arm keeps cable properly wound on
its reel at all times – even when it is not being pulled. SWA’s Marketing Manager, Colin Fletcher, said: “If pulling cable is your business,
you’ll find that Cable Companion makes the job quicker, easier and hassle-free – no more returning to the drum to sort out tangles!” Reels are securely mounted on
Cable Companion with a strong, easy-to-use catch. Its 360-degree rotational design
means that cable can be pulled in any direction or to any height. Alternatively, the dispenser can be locked in one position. Cable Companion features a
sturdy and stable floor-standing frame, but the range also includes a special bracket for clamping the dispenser to joists, so it’s ideal for use in lofts, too. Cable Companion easily folds away flat, making it convenient to transport and
store. Built to last, its robust metal construction will give many years of service. The Cable Companion range features five products: Single-reel unit c/w base Multi-reel unit c/w base Single reel, head only Multi reel, head only Joist bracket Check out the demo video at

Caterpillar Introduces New Line of Cat®
Portable Generators
Caterpillar is expanding into the home and outdoor power category with the introduction of the Cat® RP Series of portable generators that includes three standard models, ranging from 2.5 to 4.4 kW. The RP Series is designed to provide reliable, convenient power for both professional contractors and retail consumers. Caterpillar engineering teams designed the new portable generators, guided by
extensive testing and research to identify the design and usability features that customers value the most. Everything needed to operate the generator is easily accessible in one
convenient, LED-lit control panel. A multi-function display enables users to toggle between lifetime running hours, session running hours, voltage and run time to easily monitor generator performance and to determine when it’s time to re-fuel or service the unit. To power multiple devices, the RP2500, RP3100 and RP4400 have multiple outlets, with 115/230 switchable voltage as well as 12V DC charging points/power outlets. The RP Series generators feature a compact design – up to 10.1 cm shorter
than comparable competitive models – and a lower centre of gravity to reduce tipping. The solid steel frame and enclosed roll cage protect generator components
from damage. Bundled wires are tucked away in the frame and solid wheels eliminate punctures on site. An automatic shutdown engages when oil levels drop too low. A circuit breaker protects against electric shock and generator overload.
Automatic voltage regulation generates clean power that won’t damage delicate tools or appliances. An extra-large fuel tank feeds the generator for up to 18 hours (varies by model and load). For more information on the new generator line, including where to buy, visit:
