If you want to buy American-made products for your shop, look no further than Kimball Midwest. Here are some of our new and top Made in the USA products:
Our High Head Grade 8 cap screws and matching nuts and washers are made in the USA using steel made in the United States. This provides the highest level of product quality, lot traceability and reliability. The KM-USA Cap Screw features a 30-degree chamfered point for easier threading and assembly. It also has a 20 percent higher head, which allows for superior torquing and less slipping of wrenches.
The Super Primalloy® line features select made in the USA drill bits that come in a variety of sizes, which makes them perfect for just about any job. They are constructed from premium M series high-speed steel and feature a 135-degree split-point design, which ensures accurate starting without the use of a center punch and prevents drill walking while holding a tighter hole tolerance.
With the high amount of paint solids in these paints, it takes two to three cans of typical spray paint to give you the coverage of just one can of Ultra Pro-Max. This saves you not just time, but money, as well. These paints have also been formulated to reduce the amount of solvent to a low level, which reduces environmental and health hazards.
Each K-Series crimper is angled for easy usability, and their open design provides excellent operator visibility. Depending on the model, they can crimp up to 6-wire hose.
The K-Series saws feature a powerful motor that provides fast, easy cutting even on large diameter hoses. These saws make cleaner cuts so there is less debris, which reduces dust and fumes in the air and the risk of contamination in the line.
The Kimposite line features select made in the USA fittings. The fittings have a lightweight, composite construction. They are also available in a variety of assortments, perfect for any job at hand.
SolderConn and Ultra-Link Connectors
With the SolderConn connectors, in one step, you can get a connection that is soldered, completely insulated and sealed against corrosion.
Ultra-Link connectors feature a pre-fluxed, low temperature solder that provides superior current flow and the highest tensile strength connections. Their Therma-Flow sealant seals the connector to lock out moisture and help prevent corrosion so you can get an excellent connection, even in the harshest environments.
Kim-Krimp fittings are a great option that will meet your general fluid flow maintenance needs.
At Kimball Midwest, we are committed to continue to buy American. Every opportunity we have to convert to a quality American manufacturer, we want to take advantage. So, if you want the quality and reliability that buying American can bring, shop Kimball Midwest.
