LINK Tool Use at North American Nuclear Plants Tops 75%


CHICAGO, Apr. 14 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --


    Safety issues at nuclear plants have resulted in increased usage of LINK

Tools, now topping 75% of all nuclear plants. This includes nuclear

generating stations and plants in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.


    Safety at nuclear facilities is of prime importance to staff, owners and

the public alike. LINK's unique locking system which guarantees no dropped

sockets, has proven to be a critical factor in high risk maintenance

situations. "The use of LINK Tools is now mandated at many sites," according

to John Davidson, President and CEO of LINK.


    LINK's track record working with critical operations is unique and

includes work on high priority assignments such as the NASA space shuttle bay

and the retrofitting of atomic missiles on submarines at the U.S. Navy's

Undersea Warfare Center. LINK is also the first hand tool to receive a

coveted Q-Mark by TUV, one of the world's most highly regarded testing

bureaus.


    "In addition to enhanced safety, there are also highly significant

efficiency reasons to use LINK tools," Davidson added. LINK Tools have now

been tested in extended aviation training by the U.S. military and found to

save from 25-50% in the time required on all tasks. LINK Tools work with and

lock on all sockets and attachments having standard detents.
