Blackhawk Chassis Alignment Equipment
Blackhawk have long been renowned for collision damage repair systems in the UK. As part of the Snap-on Equipment Group and in conjunction with their UK distributor, Junair Spraybooths, Blackhawk continue to supply the industry with Porto-Power, their well-known product range of hydraulic straightening equipment. There is also a large range of pulling clamps and other time saving accessories.
Blackhawk Mini Post
Blackhawk have recently launched Mini Post in the UK, a new quick pull bench. Constructed to the usual robust standards expected from this respected manufacturer this bench is ideal for those quick cosmetic repairs that only require a quick tug. With a five ton ram and multi directional pull arm, together with integral lift, this bench makes an ideal choice for bodyshops looking to increase their efficiency.
For those bodyshops looking to get the best return from their investment, the Korek has become an industry standard. Being a ground anchoring system, the Korek maximises the use of workshop floor space and unlike a conventional bench, each Korek bay is in constant use, whether for parking, quick pull, jigging or even using the integral lifts as a stand alone feature. Importantly, the Korek minimises costly vehicle movements in the bodyshop, a vital point that is often overlooked. Coupled with the Shark, Blackhawk’s’ award winning computerised measuring system, the Korek is a versatile and efficient, total repair system.
For those bodyshops who require a more conventional bench, Blackhawk have a choice in the range, with the Multirack and the new Power Pro 1001, both of which have a ‘drive on’ facility.
Commercial repairers are not forgotten, Blackhawk have a comprehensive range of pulling towers and the very impressive Power Cage has power to spare, whether repairing rigid trucks, tractor units or forty foot trailers.
