ToughBuilt puts the ‘work’ in work bench

ToughBuilt is showing further evidence of its commitment to developing revolutionary job site products that set new standards in capability and performance.

The US manufacturer has recently extended its impressive range of job site stands with the new QuickSet™ Work Bench.

“The launch of our QuickSet Work Bench means we now offer a full eco-system of job site solutions that can support users with practically any need†comments Matt Handley, ToughBuilt’s European Head of Marketing.

“This latest introduction joins a category-leading portfolio which already includes globally respected Mitre Saw Stands, Roller Stands and Sawhorsesâ€.

Toughbuilt QuickSet Work Bench 3

“Far from being some flimsy or frustrating product that struggles with the demands of most site environments and tasks, our new QuickSet Work Bench shares the same DNA as the rest of our range. It is a heavy-duty solution created for the serious user.â€

Capable of supporting an evenly laid load of up to 455kg (1,000lbs) in weight, the ToughBuilt QuickSet Work Bench can be set up with exceptional speed and efficiency to create a rock-solid, ultra-practical workspace.

It employs a unique and intelligently designed mechanism which allows its robust steel legs to be deployed and locked into position in seconds, simply with a button push and a pull of a handle.

After use, the legs can be retracted with equal expediency and ease using the same method, and the Work Bench can be transported with its easy-carry handle.

As well as being strong, the new ToughBuilt QuickSet Work Bench is also smart. Its surface bristles with well-thought-out features are designed to simplify life for users and to boost their productivity.

This includes multiple 20mm holes and clamping slots along with integrated quick-reference measurement markings in centimetres, inches and degrees. The QuickSet Work Bench is also compatible with ToughBuilt’s game-changing ClipTech™ system.

A range of over fifty interchangeable products, including pouches, belts, bags and accessories, the ClipTech system enables users to organise their tools and supplies, such as fixings and fasteners, like never before.

The new ToughBuilt QuickSet™ Work Bench is supplied with one ClipTech Hub attachment point which can be positioned on any of its four corners.

Additional Hubs can be purchased separately.
Like all ToughBuilt products, the manufacturer’s QuickSet Work Bench comes with a two-year warranty as standard but with the option of increasing this to 25 years if users register their purchase. This can be done by completing a simple online form on the company’s website.

To highlight the numerous benefits offered by its latest product, ToughBuilt has produced a new video about the QuickSet Work Bench which can be viewed on its YouTube channel.

Matt Handley sums up: “As part of its launch, the ToughBuilt QuickSet Work Bench was independently reviewed by respected industry experts and influencers. Unanimously, they praised the product for its versatility, portability and impressive ability to meet the needs of both DIYers and professional tradespeople alike.â€

ROCKWOOL Launches NyRock Technology To Create Lowest Lambda Stone Wool in the UK

0

Patented technology delivers improved thermal performance while maintaining non-combustibility and acoustic capabilities.

NyRock technology

As pressure mounts on the construction industry to deliver more thermally efficient buildings while preserving standards of fire and acoustic performance, ROCKWOOL has launched NyRock technology, an evolution in stone wool composition that delivers the lowest lambda stone wool insulation available in the UK.

Created using a new patented production process, this next-generation stone wool insulation has a more efficient fibre structure that can deliver thermal conductivity as low as 0.032 W/mK.

Critically, this means that U-values can be met with comparatively thinner constructions, which in the case of external wall applications, creates the potential for additional interior floor space over a given building footprint.

Alongside its improved thermal efficiency, NyRock technology still delivers all the additional benefits of stone wool insulation including durability, the ability to be recycled indefinitely, and acoustic and fire performance.

Comprising naturally non-combustible volcanic rock, ROCKWOOL solutions powered by NyRock technology achieve Euroclass A1 – the highest possible rating – and can withstand temperatures in excess of 1000°C.

NyRock technology will be rolled out across a range of ROCKWOOL insulation solutions during 2022.

“Our new products featuring NyRock technology will be significant for the construction industry, giving specifiers and building owners a true solution to the rapidly evolving needs of the built environment and its biggest challenges,†said Paul Barrett, Head of Product Management at ROCKWOOL UK.

“To limit the impact of climate change and support the delivery of net zero carbon in the UK by 2050, it’s the responsibility of manufacturers like ourselves to go further, re-inventing and improving on existing solutions. NyRock technology does just that.

“While stone wool insulation is already known for its proven benefits such as longevity, ease of installation, circularity, and non-combustibility that is crucial for protecting people and properties, our patented technology builds on these advantages further.

“Whether specifiers need a solution to the lower U-values of England’s new Approved Document L that also maximises floor space, or a non-combustible option for a high-rise property with enhanced thermal and acoustic performance, NyRock technology’s industry-leading lambda value for stone wool and ability to reduce the thickness of a construction element support those requirements.â€

How To Fix Low Water Pressure Problems with AccuBoost

I have been a plumber for over 40 years and one question I have heard over and over again is “What can you do to improve my mains water pressure?”.

For a lot of my career, the answer was “not much” because boosting the flow and pressure on water mains used to require a complicated and expensive set-up or a new water main.

Happily, we now have a much easier option from Salamander that can be fitted in a day and in this video I am going to take you through the whole process from start to finish.

Before any installation, we need to select the right product from the Salamander range. Now if all this sounds a bit daunting don’t worry because Salamander has a technical team that can help you to get it right.

It all depends on what you have in the way of flow and pressure to begin with and what you want to achieve.

It could be that you have a house full of people and several showers and bathrooms that everyone wants to use at once or it could be that you simply want to put a bit more oomph into your shower.

All of this is achievable with Salamander.

Now it could be that you need nothing more than a simple mains boost pump. There was a time when pumping your mains water was not allowed but now the Water Regulations allow you to pump up to 12 litres per minute.

This will give you a very nice shower and help you to fill your bath faster.

Now it is worth mentioning at this point that a slow hot water flow may simply be because your combi boiler is struggling to heat the water fast enough in the winter when the water comes into the house a lot colder.

Your plumber or heating engineer should be able to give you some advice on this.

The first thing they will do is find out what kind of pressure you have already and they will also measure your flow rate to see how close you are to that magic 12 litres per minute.

Now this house has three ensuite showers and a bathroom so we are really looking for more than 12 litres a minute. At the moment they have a morning routine where they all use the showers at different times because the flow rate is just not enough.

Just as a point of interest they actually had the water service pipe renewed all the way from the main in the road as part of a lead replacement programme but the new pipe has made very little difference because the old 1/2 inch tapping on the main was not changed.

So what I have recommended for this home is an AccuBoost tank and since they have plenty of room in the cellar we are going to fit the largest one in the range. If you don’t have room for something like this there are smaller units. There is also the option of using a pump and the AccuBoost tank.

I am going to fit the tank on its own but I have told the homeowner that they can have a pump added to the unit if they want to boost the flow rate even more. I am hoping that the AccuBoost on its own will do the trick but, for the purposes of this video I am going to fit a smaller pumped unit so we can see what the difference is.

The good news is that neither option is complicated.

The more technically minded of you might be wondering just how this tank can boost the flow rate without a pump so let me explain what is going on.

The mains water is coming into the house around 7 litres a minute, but this can vary at different times of the day. This house is on top of a hill and is probably the last property on the line so there is a drop in pressure during the busy periods. There is also an ensuite shower in the loft conversion so that often finishes up with no water at all when everyone else is using the showers.

During the night the pressure and flow inevitably go up when people aren’t using water so this extra pressure will force water into this Boost cylinder. Inside the AccuBoost is an EPDM rubber balloon and as the water pressure comes in the balloon is compressed.

There is a non-return valve on the mains to make sure the water doesn’t simply flow back into the mains when the pressure drops. So, the mains pressure compresses the balloon and the water in the cylinder is under maximum pressure. When a hot or cold tap is opened the water will rush out as the rubber balloon expands to push the water out.

Now this is a big cylinder so there is enough water here to give the home plenty of showers but as the cylinder is emptying it is also filling up again. You can think of it like a buffer taking out the spikes in demand and steadying the flow.

If however, we didn’t have enough room for a large tank we might want to fit a pumped unit so the AccuBoost could begin filling at a faster rate.

The real beauty of this technology is its flexibility. It can be configured to suit the space available and the demands of the home.

Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) are an efficient and environmentally friendly heating and cooling solution that extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it into buildings. They work by absorbing heat from the air (even in cold temperatures) and using a refrigeration system to amplify and deliver it inside, providing warmth in winter. In summer, the process can be reversed to cool indoor spaces.

ASHPs are a sustainable alternative to traditional fossil fuel-based heating systems, offering lower carbon emissions and reduced energy costs. Their versatility, ease of installation, and ability to integrate with existing heating systems make them an increasingly popular choice for both residential and commercial properties. Additionally, as they rely on renewable energy sources, they align well with global efforts to reduce carbon footprints and combat climate change.

Avoid a Life of Knee-dless Pain! | Toughbuilt Knee Pads

Toughbuilt Knee Pads Innovation

“When you check out a ToughBuilt (Knee Pads) product, you’ll probably think: I wish I’d thought of that. In a way, you did. Because before we start designing, we spend hours watching hard working professionals like you at work. Then we figure out how to make your life work easier, better, faster.”

Contact Toughbuilt to find knee pad buying options near you: info-uk@toughbuilt.com & info-eu@toughbuilt.com

Knee pads are an essential piece of protective gear in many trades, particularly those that require extended periods of kneeling or working on hard surfaces. In professions such as construction, plumbing, flooring, and carpentry, workers often spend significant time on their knees, which can lead to chronic knee pain and long-term damage if proper protection is not used. Knee pads help to distribute pressure more evenly across the knee joint, reducing strain and preventing injuries like bursitis, tendinitis, and cartilage wear. By cushioning the knees, knee pads also help to prevent acute injuries that can result from accidental impacts or falls, providing a critical layer of safety.

Beyond the health benefits, knee pads contribute to overall work efficiency and productivity. Workers who are comfortable and free from pain can focus better on their tasks and work for longer periods without needing frequent breaks to alleviate discomfort. This not only improves the quality of work but also reduces downtime caused by knee-related injuries or discomfort. Moreover, investing in knee protection demonstrates a commitment to worker safety, which can enhance job satisfaction and morale. In trades where physical health is closely tied to job performance, knee pads are a simple yet effective tool to ensure long-term well-being and efficiency.
