Hilti’s Adhesive Anchor Dispenser

Hilti’s adhesive anchor dispenser is now more productive because of the new Hilti HIT-ED 3500-A CPC Lithium-Ion Battery Dispenser. Utilizing the Hilti 14.4 V lithium-ion battery platform, the ED 3500-A CPC increases battery capacity from 50 cartridges up to 80.

The battery is lighter than most other models, so for contractors working throughout the day or on difficult jobs where they often reach up to work, there’s more comfort and less fatigue. Protected by a glass-fiber reinforced housing, the ED 3500-A CPC is built for a long service life under rugged use.
