STOW, OHIO - Matco Tools, a manufacturer of tools and equipment, introduces Infinium, a new line of cordless tools developed specifically for today's professional automotive technicians who require both power and portability to maximize their efficiency.
Featuring a lightweight design and the latest battery cell technology, the Infinium product line is designed to deliver simplicity and flexibility in the most demanding work environments. Matco offers a lithium universal smart charger as well as a 10.8V quick charger for its Infinium lineup, which features three voltage families: the 18 Volt family includes a ½-inch impact wrench, axle grinder, and power shear; the 14.4 Volt family has a 3/8-inch impact wrench, drill driver, and grease gun; and the 10.8 Volt family includes a mini polisher, drill driver, ¼-inch impact wrench, and impact/screwdriver combo. Products can be ordered as a kit (tool, battery, and charger) or a la carte.
The Infinium 18V 1/2" Impact Wrench (part #MCL18IWVS) is the line's flagship product. Featuring 425 ft. lbs. of working torque and weighing less than 7 lbs., this impact wrench offers a combination of convenience, power, and utility. Matco also exclusively offers the industry a 10.8V ¼-inch Impact Wrench (part #MUC108IW) that features 55 ft.-lbs. of torque, a variable speed trigger for greater control, and a compact size to easily access hard-to-reach areas.
All the Infinium tools come with lithium ion batteries, which boast short charge times - cycles complete within an hour on a fully discharged battery - and no memory build up so they can be charged or used without permanent capacity loss. In addition, technicians can easily identify remaining charge at the push of a button fuel gauge, which helps them effectively manage their tool use. Matco's 10.8V line up has a 1.5Ah lithium ion battery, while the 14.4V and 18V lines come with 3.0Ah batteries.
