Born in the USA

A new PPG / Dynabrade partnership is giving consumers across the region access to a wide range of iconic tools, complete with outstanding backup support.


When it comes to premium quality pneumatic tools, one name stands head and shoulders above the rest – ‘Dynabrade’. In fact, the brand is so famous for its rock-solid reliability, longevity and industry-leading performance, the name Dynabrade has actually become the default workshop term for sanding and grinding. People commonly refer to ‘Dynabrading the job’ whether they are using a Dynabrade tool or not! Keen to expand the premium brands on offer to Australian and New Zealand consumers, the local PPG team has established a special partnership with the iconic American brand. Indeed, Dynabrade’s range of precision engineered tools combine perfectly with modern processes to produce real productivity gains, says Kurt Way, PPG Category Manager, Associated Products.
 
“Dynabrade is an incredibly strong name with a very traditional USA-built philosophy and history of innovation. The company has built its reputation on a very simple mind-set – producing very well engineered tools that are made to do a job and do that job very, very well! That story of innovation goes right back to the beginning in 1969 when the Dynafile was released and it’s still the best-selling tool the company makes. It helped Dynabrade develop a reputation for problem solving where they listen to the issue’s customers are having and come up with effective solutions. Local customers will now be able to choose from a range of Dynabrade models aimed at boosting productivity and reducing overall cost.”
 
Fully supported
Via the partnership with PPG, Dynabrade comes with the full backup and support expected of a premium offering. Along with extensive stock of spare parts, there is a comprehensive network of repair centres strategically located around the region to deal with both warranty and post warranty repairs. The peace-of-mind of having factory accredited experts on hand means your Dynabrade product gets repaired quickly and effectively and it’s back in your hands sooner. In addition, there will be training programs available, as well as access to best practice processes.
 
Made to last
Every Dynabrade air tool package proudly carries the words ‘Made in USA’ because each one is still manufactured at the company headquarters in Clarence, New York. Rather than simply design tools and have them made overseas, Dynabrade has maintained its quality and extraordinary attention to detail. It’s something you can appreciate as soon as you use a Dynabrade tool, say Kurt Way.
 
“Dynabrade products are not cheap but they are definitely not throwaway items like some cheaper brands that get swapped out every 12 months or even less. It’s a very strong brand with very strong mechanicals that are built to last. The design and quality of the air motors means they generate excellent torque which gets the job done quicker and easier. Calculate the overall costs and a Dynabrade tool is going to save you money in the long run. Operator comfort is also excellent thanks to lower vibration and noise level, lightweight and superb balance compared with conventional pneumatic tools.”
 
“Although Dynabrade already has an excellent reputation and a long history with panel beaters, fabricators and painters, we see its appeal going much further. For example, grinding and sanding operations are very common in the light industrial sector and industrial sector so Dynabrade can provide an excellent, high productivity solution. Whichever sector it’s being used in, we believe that Dynabrade tools will be a perfect fit for best practice processes.”
