The company's latest 'New Product and Promotional Selection' catalogue features many innovative new products, including the exclusive 440 Series Combination Wrenches, the handy Probag Soft Tote, Protwist Screwdrivers and the U.48 next-gen Oil Filter Wrench.

The February-April catalogue also contains a comprehensive range of screwdrivers, socketry, impact and workshop tools at promotional prices, offering mechanics and engineers a wider choice of high quality tools.

David Osborne, head of marketing at Facom, said: "Professionals say price, quality, safety and productivity are their top priorities when buying tools.

Facom has invested heavily in research and development so that all the products we introduce into the marketplace meet and exceed these criteria to ensure they meet our customers' expectations.

Over the years we have built up a reputation for producing tools that achieve the highest standards of performance, save end-users time, simplify their tasks and guarantee their safety".

* 440 Series wrenches - the 440 Series Wrenches offer comfort and efficiency, thanks to their unique cross sectional profile that allows increased torque transmission with less discomfort, greater accessibility, due to their high relief zone, and strength, being able to withstand twice the ISO standard torque without breaking.

* Probag - the Probag Soft Tote is manufactured from 1200 x 1200 denier fabric for maximum resistance and features a ballistic nylon base for shock protection, plus integral pouches and pockets for wrench clips, tape measures, etc.

It also has a 'Kangaroo pouch' fold-away cover to protect tools from dust or rain.

Protwist Screwdrivers - with a silicon carbon steel blade, precision-machined tips and hardened and tempered blades for optimum strength and endurance, the Protwist is the most advanced screwdriver Facom has ever made.

The multi-material polyamide and polyurethane handle is designed for intensive use, shaped for massive torque transmission and is resistant to workshop chemicals and solvents.

With a range featuring 203 variants, 70 tips, nine patterns and 11 blade lengths, there's no fastener that Protwist can't handle, said Facom to manufacturingtalk.

* U.48 Oil Filter Wrench - designed with the motor professional in mind, the U.48 is the next generation of oil filter wrench and offers unparalleled speed and grip.

Simply release the wrench, position it over the filter, unlock, and the strap automatically snaps shut around the filter without need for adjustment.

It gives a tight and effective fit - super fast.
