TYROLIT announces X-LOCK Compatibility: A revolution in clamping technology

 

 

One Click and it’s done. The new clamping technology for angle grinders is poised to take the market by storm and –together with Bosch – TYROLIT is at the forefront.

 

 

In January 2019, Bosch launched its new clamping technology for attaching abrasive discs to a range of its angle grinders. The system, called X-LOCK, breaks 80 years of standstill in clamping technology and aims to revolutionise the power-tool landscape.

 

This simple click mechanism connects in seconds an abrasive disc to an X-LOCK angle grinder. But in order to do so the abrasive disc must have a special fixture to work with X-LOCK and TYROLIT is one of the first abrasive manufacturers to integrate the fixture into its abrasive disc assortment.

 

X-LOCK makes it easy to change abrasive discs and resolves many problems such as clamping flanges can wear out, flanges may be difficult to remove, and if tightened incorrectly, injury can occur.   “With our new range of X-LOCK-compatible abrasive discs, TYROLIT offers Bosch power-tool users the highest quality in cutting, flap discs as well as grinding discs,” says Christian Unterberger, Product Manager at TYROLIT. “We are very excited to be part of this technology and look forward to developing more products for the X-LOCK system.”
