ATEX APPROVED NEEDLE SCALERS

ATEX certified quality design and low vibration Trelawny’s VL (Vibro-Lo ™) Needle scalers have long been the market leading tools for descaling, offering unparalleled reductions in harmful vibration, containment of hazardous dust and drop protection. In our aim to produce the highest performing, safest tools for use in hazardous environments Trelawny offer our ATEX certified versions of the full VL range of needle scalers. The VL Ex series is based around our VL303 & VL203 pistol grip scalers and the VL223 in line scaler. Trelawny’s VL Ex series is the solution for corrosion management in high risk surroundings such as natural-gas installations, oil and LNG tankers, gas works, oil drilling platforms, refineries, petrochemical plants and shipyards.

Application
  • Trelawny’s VL Ex series is the solution for corrosion management in high risk surroundings such as natural gas installations, oil and LNG tankers, gas works, oil drilling platforms, refineries, petrochemical plants and shipyards
  • Removal of coatings, corrosion and other accumulated materials
  • Slag removal and stress relieving welds
Features
  • Beryllium Copper needles fitted as standard – Beryllium copper provides high strength with non-sparking and non-magnetic properties
  • TVS® Dust shroud options available – Ensures that operators are protected from hazardous dust present in the coating and corrosion they are removing, dust from Beryllium copper is hazardous and we strongly recommend that the VL Ex series is used in conjunction with the KAV Ex range of dust collectors
  • Fall arrestors – A simple drop protection solution is available on all VL Ex tools, eliminating the risks of dropping the tool which could cause injury, equipment damage and downtime
  • Vibro-Lo™ vibration reduction – Our VL Ex needle scalers produce up to 8 times lower levels of harmful Hand Arm Vibration (HAV) than that of standard tools protecting operators and increasing usable working time and productivity

FEATURED HEALTH & SAFETY BENEFITS

Flat Tip Needles

The flat tip needles will reduce marking on metal surfaces and can actually give a polishing finish.
For use on thin gauge metals and any surface where light treatment is required.
A 2mm needle used on a welding joint produces a similar effect to shot peening, reducing stress in the weld.

Pointed Tip Needles

An exceptional company that rescued us when another rental company had let us down. We have been able to get equipment delivered at short notice thanks to the team’s expertise and promptness. Highly recommend this company.

David Mills

The Trelawny 2ft Long Reach tool I purchased recently is great because it’s just as powerful as the electric tools, but as it’s air-powered, it can run continuously without needing any breaks.

Ian Harrison – Harrison Plastering

Productivity has exceeded our expectations. The tools are very robust plus we had a higher yield which increased our usual productivity by 50%
