CAT Tools: A Thriving Brand Outside the US
Have you heard of CAT Power Tools? Well, they may not be on your radar yet, but they are making waves in other parts of the world. CAT Power Tools, closely associated with Positec Group Limited, the owner of Worx and Rockwell Tools, offers a comprehensive lineup of power tools. Their range includes drills, demo hammers, grinders, cutting tools, sanders, lights, and much more.
What sets CAT Power Tools apart is their innovative use of graphene batteries. While many tool companies stick to conventional lithium-ion batteries, CAT is pushing the boundaries with their 18V Li-ion battery series. Of particular interest is their 5.0Ah graphene polymer lithium battery, which boasts remarkable features.
To give you an idea of the groundbreaking technology behind graphene batteries, CAT claims that their 18V GX5 5.0Ah battery can be fully charged in just 18 minutes using their fast charger. Yes, you read that correctly – 18 minutes! These batteries are not only incredibly fast to charge, but they also remain cool even under heavy loads, ensuring they don’t overheat or cause the tool to shut down due to temperature. Moreover, these batteries can withstand extremely cold temperatures, guaranteeing their functionality even in icy conditions as low as -25°C. CAT proudly assures us that their graphene batteries are designed to last five times longer than traditional Li-ion batteries.
