Malco Tools Unveils Additions to C-RHEX Line

Product line extension offers trade professionals more sizes, enhancing productivity and flexibility.

Malco Tools, one of the nation’s leading solution developers and manufacturers of a variety of high-quality tools for the HVAC and building construction trades, announced additions to its popular C-RHEX® line including C-RHEX drivers and C-RHEX SAWTOOTH in 3/8-inch and 7/16-inch hex sizes.

The new models offer trade professionals more options to quickly and easily install and remove fasteners commonly used on commercial sites.

With the addition of 3/8” and 7/16” hex sizes to Malco’s C-RHEX lines, trade professionals now have access to more driver options that feature a heavy-duty, deep-set magnet that does not contact the screw, so the fasteners spin true, and the magnet retains its strength for years to come.

Built with S2 hardened steel for long life and superior durability, the removable and reversible hex driver allows users to easily clean the socket and magnet. Trade pros can get back to work quickly by removing the driver from the impact to push the drive side of the shaft through the socket to quickly clear sealant buildup.

With the new SAWTOOTH 3/8” and 7/16” hex drivers, pros can rapidly remove sealant and adhesive-coated fasteners when doing retrofits or removals of existing HVAC equipment and ducting with the sawtooth action.

The C-RHEX drivers portfolio allows trade professionals to quickly change between popular hex sizes and eliminate troublesome buildup of sheet metal shavings with the swipe of a glove or towel. C-RHEX drivers are quick to set up and change between sizes while the driver shank remains installed in the drill chuck. The new hex reversible sockets in the 3/8” and 7/16” sizes ensure trade pros have the right size without the need for additional tools.

“We’re excited to offer new sizing options for our popular C-RHEX driver and SAWTOOTH product lines that are the perfect tool for contractors working on commercial HVAC and duct jobs,” said Rebecca Talbot, Malco’s vice president of marketing. “Malco is proud of the positive response we’ve received for our C-RHEX products and we look forward to providing future innovations that trade professionals need to make their jobs easier and safer.”

The new models join Malco’s existing C-RHEX portfolio, which includes 6 mm & 8 mm; 7 mm & 8 mm; 8 mm & 10 mm; 5/16” & 3/8”; 1/4” and 5/16”; and award-winning C-RHEX SAWTOOTH drivers in 1/4” and 5/16”.
