OK Industries, a division of Jonard, offers the PTX-1BF Wire Wrap/Unwrap Tool featuring the backforce option to help prevent overwrapping. The 115-volt electric wire wrap gun has a spring mounted internally in the collet/shaft to absorb pressure that an untrained operator may apply while wrapping. The rugged housing encases a high-torque planetary gear drive that can wrap or unwrap 18 to 32 AWG wire, and is compatible with the full range of industry-standard bits and sleeves. It has a 20 foot electrical cord.
The patented PTX Series of Wire Wrapping Tools bring a new level of wire wrapping proficiency to installers, telecom technicians and other users. This wire wrapping tool has a maximum usage rating of 2,500 cycles/day, will wire wrap 18 to 32 AWG wire and is available in both battery and electric models.
The PTX also features a dual-finger short-throw trigger, a long handle to mitigate pressure on the palm to prevent repetitive stresses and a comfort design based on the recommendations of our certified ergonomist. The housing is rugged yet light in weight and includes additional features including a wrap unwrap switch, a high-powered motor for the heaviest gauges of wire and a permanently attached collet nut.
Besides being available in both a battery and electric models, the electric PTX Wire Wrapping Tools are available with a unique optional feature known as backforce. Backforce is a spring-loaded internal device that is utilized to help the operator eliminate excess pressure against connections on critical applications. The succeeding turns of wire being wrapped on the terminal forces the wire wrapping bit rearward against a predetermined spring pressure. This assures that every connection on the panel has been wrapped at the same pressure. The backforce wire wrapping feature is recommended for new users/trainees and is best when used on wire gauges 26 to 30 AWG.
