Stanley LaBounty Offers Something Slick

The new line of shears, called the MSD Saber-Lube Series, will be presented  to demolition contractors at the National Demolition Association show in Nashville in late March and at the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries Inc. (ISRI) Annual Convention in Las Vegas in early April.

The company says its field testing has shown that the automated lubrication system accomplishes several goals:

• doubles blade life
• cuts build-up welding time on the affected jaw areas in half
• reduces downtime by two weeks or more per year
• converts blade friction to usable cutting power (an increase of up to 8 percent)
• offers less welding, which means less heat build-up cycles
• reduces noise
• provides easier removal of wear parts.

A company news release also claims that the new shears feature smoother hydraulics, “with an overall cutting process that is smoother and reduced shock loading throughout the shear and excavator,” according to the company.

The MSD Saber Lube Series incorporates established features of the MSD Saber Series in addition to the patent-pending lubrication system. More information on the new product line can be found at www.stanley-hydraulic-tools.com.
