BETA Telescopic Progressive Blowgun

BETA offers this air tool. Air tools run on pressurised air from a compressor or, depending on the model, on a battery.

Why switch to air tools?

The benefits:

• Impact wrench: repeated blows free a seized nut without the bike moving on its stand.
• Air tool versus battery tool: the air tool is light and runs without stopping, the battery tool needs no hose.
• Quick couplings and spare O-rings: switch tools in one move, with no air leak.

Why choose BETA?

BETA (Beta Utensili) is an Italian maker of professional tools founded in 1923, based in Sovico, near Milan, since 1939 and still run by the Ciceri family. The group makes its tools in its own factories in northern and central Italy.

When should you replace this tool?

A leaking coupling, a split O-ring, a tool losing power, a worn belt or disc, a marked drive square: change the relevant spare part and oil the air tool as its instructions say.
