Impact Performance Series™ Screwdriving Bits are Built for Impact Drivers.While most screwdriving bits are simply compatible with impact drills and drivers, IRWIN® Impact Performance Series™ fastener drive bits are engineered for maximum durability and long life with impact drivers. These bits are forged* rather than milled, so they fit fasteners more precisely, which reduces stripping and increases the life of the bit itself - IRWIN's Impact Performance Series bits have three times longer life than traditional bits. Manufactured with heavy-duty, cold-forged, high-grade steel, they'll withstand extremely high torque output. Plus, a black oxide finish resists corrosion and increases the life of the bit.

Impact Screwdriving Bit Features• Built for maximum durability and long life with impact drivers.

• Forged bit (vs. milled) for superior fitment, which reduces stripping and increases life of bit 3X.*

• Manufactured with heavy-duty, cold-forged, high-grade steel to withstand high torque output.

• Black oxide finish resists corrosion and increases life of bit.

The non-migratorycable that’s

polystyrene safe.

PURPLE TPS is available now from your local Powerbase branch.

Polystyrene and polyurethane insulation is bad news for standard TPS cables. They extract the plasticiser from the PVC sheath, making it hard and brittle. Eventually the cable crumbles away altogether, leaving the wiring exposed and dangerous. Now you can avoid the problem with non-migratory PURPLE TPS from General Cable. PURPLE TPS is perfect for single phase applications in environments that use polymeric insulation. No crumbling. No problems.

LED efficacy

What to check on LED system efficacy

• Efficacy of the LED chips is always greater than

the efficacy of an LED lamp or fixture, so when

comparing LED products, always look at the full

lamp or luminaire system data.

• LED manufacturers may test their LED chips

on lab benches at room temperature with

short pulses that produce a high efficacy that

cannot be achieved in practical use. This does

not reflect the typical expected output of LED

sources integrated into lamps or fixtures.

One major benefit of LED sources is their high efficacy - the light output given per unit of input energy, often shown as lumens per watt (lm/W).

Although percentages vary, it is not

uncommon to see efficacy losses of 40-50%,

as shown in the diagram below.

• Reputable LED manufacturers do not base

lumen measurements on the test results

of their LED source suppliers. Instead, they

use independent, third-party testing labs

to measure and validate the output of their

lighting fixtures according to test conditions

spelled out in the LM-79 standard.

What to ask for:• Ask for total system power consumption data including drivers;• Ask for photometric measurements of the output and light distribution of the fixture and conditions

under which the fixtures have been measured;• Find out the LED lamps or fixture’s performance at the ambient conditions

of your required application.
