EAST LONGMEADOW, Mass., July 18, 2007 — LENOX, a leading manufacturer of
premium power tool accessories, hand tools, torches, solder and band saw
blades, today introduced the new LENOX Mobile Torch System that extends
the reach and access on the job. This easy to carry, heavy duty molded
case provides storage, accessibility and protection of gas cylinders,
torch tips, solder and accessories. The Mobile Torch System offers
accessibility in tight work areas such as crawl spaces, attics,
cabinets, and ladders. The completely self-contained system includes
many timesaving features to solve common jobsite frustrations and
ultimately save professionals time and money.
The LENOX Mobile Torch System eliminates the need to carry multiple tool
bags on the job. The accessory compartment provides quick access and
convenient storage for solder, flux, brushes, abrasives, tubing cutter
and extra tips. The dual gas container can store two MAPP® or propane
gas cylinders — eliminating the need to leave a jobsite to get a refill
cylinder.
The system includes a 12.5 foot hose with metal strain relief to prevent
kinking at the fitting, self-igniting tip with replaceable burn tip, tip
handle and new all-brass regulator with hose attachment and Compressed
Gas Association (CGA) 600 cylinder connection. The 12.5 foot hose is
longer than most on the market for easy use in tight crawl spaces or
jobs that require a ladder. The system is built with a rugged,
lightweight case with integrated hose wrap and vented tip holster to
hold tips while cooling. The Mobile Torch System is compatible with
LENOX components as well as many other brands on the market.
“The LENOX Mobile Torch System was developed with professionals in
mind,” stated Lee Wilkins, director of marketing, LENOX. “This is the
only product on the market with the multi-functionality of accessory and
dual gas cylinder storage, easy accessibility to most job situations,
and protection of all components on and off the job. Each of the many
features of the Mobile Torch System were added for increased ease of
use, durability and convenience, which in turn will result in higher
productivity and profitability for plumbers and other professionals who
use the system.”
The new LENOX Mobile Torch System can be purchased at plumbing supply
houses and national dealers and distributors throughout North America.
