In this edition of Autobiz you will find the a special insert from Laser Tools and Cracessories, the Toolsaver 21 promotional catalogue, which is packed with great offers on specialist Laser tools and equipment. This includes many manufacturer specific tools designed to save garages huge amounts of time on common jobs, as well as many other innovative time and cost saving tool items.
One featured product proving especially popular at present is the Laser Tools 7069, Brake Bleeding Tool Set for VAG models. Latest vehicle designs have made brake bleeding a far more complex and time consuming task on certain VAG models with the positioning of the brake pipes on and around the brake caliper, making access to the bleed nipples quite difficult with a normal wrench.
This 10pc kit offers a convenient solution. It allows direct access onto the bleed nipple from above, and with five different lengths of socket in the kit, there is a suitable tool for all applications. An additional benefit of this kit is that it is no longer necessary to remove the wheel as direct access to the bleed nipple can be gained through the wheel spokes, thus saving time.
The bleed hose which is supplied with the kit, is guided onto the bleed nipple through the socket, hence the use of special ‘go-thru’ style 17mm hex drive sockets which allow the hose to be fitted before releasing the bleed nipple. The kit consists of a 2mtr bleed hose, five 11mm sockets of different lengths ( 12, 39, 60, 70,85mm ), one 7mm socket ( 45mm ), and a flex 17mm hex drive ratchet. This Laser Tool Set covers the same applications as the official VAG OEM VAS 6564 tool set.
Another popular featured item is the Laser Tools 6534 - Pneumatic 10 ltr Oil Extractor. This allows oil to be easily extracted via the dipstick, or oil service pipe, where new designs have dispensed with the traditional sump plug. The kit overcomes the problem of different diameter apertures and extraction pipes and comes with three extraction pipes, semi-rigid nylon 6.7mm and 9.8mm diameter, and flexible silicone 8mm diameter. There is a two metre long main suction tube with control valve and quick release fittings for fast change of the required tubes. The kit also includes a brake bleed nipple adaptor which allows the kit to do vacuum brake bleeding. Easy cleaning means the unit can also be used for alternative fluids, such as ATF and Brake Fluid without the risk of contamination.
These items and other featured products in Toolsaver 21 are available from Laser stockist nationwide.
