Snap-on Offers Heavy Duty Flyer

screen-shot-2016-09-08-at-4-35-36-pmThe 2016 Snap-on Heavy Duty Flyer is designed for jobs requiring more than a little elbow grease. Featuring hand tools and diagnostics among other shop essentials, this 16-page flyer is full of tough tools and great savings. Getting a good grip on productivity takes the right kind of equipment, and Snap-on offers innovative tools packed with plenty of power to get the job done right.

“With every step in the design process, our Snap-on product management teams find ways to help technicians work more efficiently,” says David Brekke, product manager for Snap-on. “The Heavy Duty Flyer captures those tools that take technicians to the next level in professional repairs and maintenance.”

The new Snap-on Pro-Link Ultra Diagnostics Kit is a nod to modern truck technology. The Elite Kit (EEHD345EPWZ) and Starter Kit (EEHD345SPWZ) provide OEM-proprietary diagnostics for commercial heavy-duty trucks. Tested and licensed OEM coverage applies to all major systems, including engines, transmissions, ABS, instrument cluster, emissions, SCR, body systems and more. Equipped with a 27-inch HD LED monitor and roll cab, this kit is perfect for truck shops, general repair, fleet maintenance, mobile service and municipalities.

“Today’s roads are filled with heavy duty vehicles with complex, state-of-the-art systems. Gone are the days of the quick mechanical fix. Technicians must be able to solve complicated, computer-based problems. The Snap-on Pro-Link Ultra takes trouble-shooting to the next level by providing techs with reliable solutions,” says Brekke.

The EEHD345EPWZ includes 18 software titles, while the EEHD345SPWZ offers three predetermined software titles. Both models feature an 8.5” full color LED sunlight-readable display, as well as the ability to view data results via HDMI output to the 27-inch monitor from in the truck seat. The roll cab is perfect for mobility, with four custom-fit foam drawer organizers for easy-to-access storage of essential product components. The top drawer is large enough to store a printer for vehicle reports and diagnostic information right from the service bay.

The Heavy Duty Flyer also highlights various hand tools including the Snap-on SHN36 1/2-inch Drive 36-inch Breaker Bar. Ideal for use on stubborn, rusted fasteners, the SHN36 is perfect for tire removal, turning of head bolts on heavy-duty trucks and track adjustments on construction and agricultural equipment. “Techs were looking for a tool that provides more leverage to increase power when turning stubborn fasteners,” says Snap-on product manager, Brian Benes. “The SHN36 offers 33 percent more torque when applying the same amount of force to the handle than other 1/2-inch breaker bars.”

Snap-on engineers moved the clevis from the handle to the head of the tool and strengthened the head and square drive, improving the life of the SHN36. The longer, durable handle adds a soft grip for better control, comfort and maneuverability. Benes says, “the SHN36 makes work easier for automotive technicians and heavy-duty mechanics while standing up to the rigors of professional shop environments.”

The Snap-on Heavy Duty Flyer is full of special deals good now through October 31, 2016. Customers can learn more by contacting their participating Snap-on franchisee or other sales representative, visiting www.snapon.com or calling toll free 877-SNAPON-4 (877-762-7664).
