German PLIMEX tools PLIMEX models PLIMEX prices

PLIMEX tools is a general term for various metal devices manufactured through physical processing such as forging, rolling, and cutting of metals like iron, steel, and aluminum. Hardware tools can be classified by product application into: tool hardware, construction hardware, daily-use hardware, locks and abrasives, kitchen and bathroom hardware, home hardware, and hardware components. This includes various manual, electric, pneumatic, and cutting tools; automotive maintenance tools; agricultural tools; lifting tools; measuring tools; tool machinery; cutting tools; jigs and fixtures; cutters; molds; cutting edges; grinding wheels; drill bits; polishing machines; tool accessories; measuring and cutting tools; painting tools; abrasives and grinding materials; manual socket wrench sockets; striking open-end wrenches and striking box-end wrenches.

PLIMEX tool types

1) Frame saw. Also known as a buck saw, it consists of an I-shaped wooden frame, twisted rope with toggle, and saw blade. The ends of the saw blade are fixed to the frame with knobs, which can also adjust the blade angle. After tightening the twisted rope, the blade is tensioned and ready for use. Frame saws are classified into coarse, medium, and fine types based on blade length and tooth pitch. Coarse saw blades are 650—750mm long, with a tooth pitch of 4—5mm; they are mainly used for sawing thicker wood. Medium saw blades are 550—650mm long, with a tooth pitch of 3—4mm; they are mainly used for sawing thin wood or cutting tenons. Fine saw blades are 450—500mm long, with a tooth pitch of 2—3mm; they are mainly used for sawing finer wood and cutting tenon shoulders. 2) Knife saw. A knife saw mainly consists of a saw edge and a handle, and can be single-sided, double-sided, or back-backed. Single-sided knife saws have a blade length of 350mm, with teeth on one side; depending on the function of the teeth, they can be used for rip cuts or cross cuts. Double-sided knife saws have a blade length of 300mm, with teeth on both sides; typically, one side is for rip cuts and the other for cross cuts. Back-backed knife saws have a blade plate length of 250—300mm; the back is reinforced with a steel strip, and the teeth are fine, available for both rip and cross cuts. 3) Groove saw. A groove saw consists of a handle and a saw blade, with the blade being approximately 200mm long. It is mainly used for cutting grooves in wood. 4) Panel saw. Also known as a hand saw, it consists of a handle and a saw blade. The blade is approximately 250—750mm long, with a tooth pitch of 3—4mm. Panel saws are mainly used for sawing wider wooden boards. 5) Keyhole saw. The blade is narrow and long, with a pointed tip, and a length of approximately 300—400mm. Keyhole saws are mainly used for sawing narrow holes and slots. 6) Coping saw. Also known as a fret saw, its structure is similar to that of a frame saw, but the blade is narrower (approximately 10mm). It is mainly used for sawing arcs and curves. 7) Wire saw. Also known as a bow saw, it is made by bending a bamboo strip into a bow shape and stretching a wire between the ends. Saw-tooth-like ridges are cut into the wire, using their sharp edges for cutting. The wire is approximately 200—600mm long, and the bow frame is 800—900mm long. Wire saws are mainly used for cutting complex curves and openings.

PLIMEX tool classification

Non-sparking tools are internationally referred to as "safety tools" and "non-sparking tools," and domestically in China as "explosion-proof tools." Explosion-proof tools produced, sold, and distributed in China can be divided into two main categories by material: 1. Aluminum-copper alloy (commonly known as aluminum bronze) explosion-proof tools. The specific material is a copper-based alloy composed of high-purity electrolytic copper as the base, with added aluminum, nickel, manganese, iron, and other metals. 2. Beryllium-copper alloy (commonly known as beryllium bronze) explosion-proof tools. The specific material is a copper-based alloy composed of high-purity electrolytic copper as the base, with added beryllium, nickel, and other metals. Both materials have excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. After heat treatment, the hardness and wear resistance of aluminum bronze are nearly identical to those of beryllium bronze, both reaching above HRC30o. Beryllium bronze is non-magnetic and can be used in strong magnetic field environments. Explosion-proof tools can also be divided into two main categories by manufacturing process: 1. Casting process: This is a traditional manufacturing technology that was internationally common for explosion-proof tools in the 80s and is still widely used by most domestic manufacturers. Advantages of the casting process: simple process and low manufacturing cost. Disadvantages: lower product density, hardness, tensile strength, and torque resistance; more pores and sand holes, resulting in shorter product service life. 2. Forging process: The latest international manufacturing technology, using large presses or punch presses with high-heat-resistant forming molds to forge in a single step. Advantages of the forging process: significantly increases product density, hardness, tensile strength, and torque resistance; basically eliminates pores and sand holes, extending the mechanical performance and service life of the product by approximately 1 times compared to traditional casting. Disadvantages: higher investment in equipment and molds, resulting in higher costs.

PLIMEX tool precautions

1) Before use, inspect hand tools for damage. Do not use unsafe tools. 2) Keep tools clean, especially the handles, to prevent slipping during operation. 3) Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as goggles and gloves. 4) Use hand tools with correct posture and technique. Maintain a stable stance for safe force application; do not exert excessive force. 5) When using sharp tools, do not point the blade or sharp parts toward others. 6) When not in use, cover blades or sharp parts with protective guards. Avoid carrying tools by hand or keeping them in pockets. 7) Do not misuse hand tools for other purposes. 8) Understand the characteristics of each hand tool and use them correctly.
