MAKE THE SWITCH Battery-actuated fastener BX 3-ME 02 Built on the success of the revolutionary Hilti BX 3, the new BX 3-ME 02 is the 2nd generation of our battery-actuated tools, developed specifically for electrical and mechanical contractors. Powered by a brushless motor and our standard 22V battery, the BX 3-ME 02 uses patented spring-belt technology to perform applications traditionally limited to propellant-actuated tools, without the hassle of gas cans or cartridge disposal. Unlike flywheel technology, the spring- belt technology does not cause the same wear and tear on the piston resulting in superior fastening quality and a much longer life of the tool. mode and an additional smart feature made possible through Bluetooth connectivity. Using built-in Bluetooth technology and the new Hilti Connect 2.0 mobile app you can track the number of fasteners, find your tool on a jobsite using audio and visual signal and even do active tool diagnostics and troubleshooting on the spot. All the new features of the 2nd generation are designed to help deliver reliable fastening quality, lower noise levels and increase your productivity on the job. New generation upgrades include up to 30% increase in fastening speed, extended battery reach, updated standby APPLICATIONS AND ADVANTAGES • Fastening cables and conduits to floors, walls and ceilings on concrete, solid masonry or steel • Designed for work in occupied spaces where lower noise level is required • Battery-actuated tool with speed and productivity comparable to gas-actuated and powder-actuated tools • No disposal of hazardous materials required • Reduced operator fatigue due to lower recoil compared to gas-actuated tools • Maintenance free tool. The user is not required to perform any cleaning or spare part replacement on the jobsite • Bluetooth connectivity for instant access to tool usage data we want to hear from you
