Recently Armeg, British power tool accessory manufacturer with a 50 year heritage, welcomed Adrian Journeaux back to their HQ.
Armeg are very proud to have collaborated with Adrian on The Brocket – a clever tool which he developed to help him solve a problem he regularly faced in his job as a professional commercial electrician.
Dissatisfied with the tools available to tighten conduit bushes, especially those located in confined spaces, Adrian designed The Brocket. When used with a mini ratchet, its sleek profile enables it to be used in awkward-to-reach installations. The Brocket features a machined hexagonal recess, which locates positively on bushes for a secure fit and reduced slippage, and a ¼” hexagonal shank.
In addition to the current sizes, which fit 20mm and 25mm conduit bushes, Armeg now offer a brand-new size for use with 32mm conduit bushes. All of these are available through Armeg’s dealer network.
The first-off from the first production batch was specially laser-marked and presented to Adrian during his visit. Adrian said, “I am thrilled with The Brocket and the new size, which means that there is now a Brocket for 32mm conduit bushes. To have worked so closely with the production team at Armeg, a renowned British maker, has been an incredibly rewarding experience.”
The Brocket was awarded a patent earlier this year and is proudly made in Sheffield, England as a one-piece integrated system from a high-quality, heat-treated alloy. What’s more, Armeg have just taken delivery of a new state-of-the-art CNC machine which will increase manufacturing capacity and capability for The Brocket and Armeg’s range of power tool accessories.
Further collaborations were discussed during Adrian’s visit, so watch this space for more innovative Sheffield made products for professional electricians.
