Pneumatic tools are frequently used in environments, where no electric tools may be used due to risk of explosion. These environments may be industrial, but e.g. also service stations and car workshops. Pneumatic tools are not only safe, they are moreover clean and reliable.
Pneumatic tools are mostly used for tightening and loosening bolted connections with a specific torque. Due to the large variety of bolted connections, there are also many pneumatic torque wrenches, often manufactured for one particular (specialised) application.
Laco sells and rents pneumatic tools of the following brands: Ingersoll-Rand, Norbar and Plarad. Laco performs maintenance works, repairs and certifications for all brands of pneumatic (compressed-air) tools.
