Equipter 2015 Recap: A New Roofing Tool and Resources

 

It’s the round-up time of year! The Equipter team won’t be rehashing this year’s goofiest dog videos or the top Star Wars gifts, but we are sharing what we’ve done in 2015, our plans for 2016—and what all that means for you, our friends and colleagues in the roofing and construction industries. Check out our latest and greatest new roofing tool and more.

New Roofing Tools

 

The Stow-A-Brake made its official debut this year. This new roofing tool allows you to easily mount an aluminum brake to your truck’s ladder rack. It’s the ideal equipment for brake storage for roofing contractors, general contractors, and window and siding contractors. One of Stow-A-Brake’s coolest benefits is that its well-engineered design means only one crew member is needed to set up a brake for flashing, fascia, and soffit. But, as they used to say on those late-night TV infomercials, that’s not all, folks! Our team is proud to announce that it’s adding another tool to Equipter’s shed of efficiency-building roofing and construction equipment. 

New Roofing Equipment

Enter the Equipter CR8400, which is scheduled for release in 2016. Over the last year, we’ve been refining and tweaking it in the field. The result is a compact mobile crane featuring a gasoline-powered engine that takes the CR8000 into the places a conventional crane just can’t go. The unit is lightweight and offers a tight turning radius—perfect for maneuvering around virtually any job site, from the landscape of a residential property to the nooks and crannies of a construction site. This new self-propelled compact crane will give your crew the capability to work smarter and more efficiently.
