Polyamide housing
The fibreglas reinforced polyamide housing was developed to suit high-quality electric power tools, and therefore the toughest conditions; it has proven its worth for the past 40 years and in millions of tools. Sturdy, yet flexible, this material is far superior to any metal housing under a variety of conditions. Another advantage is the complete protection provided by this shock-resistent insulating material which provides safety against electric shock. Polyamide is neutral to the skin, provides a safe grip and excellent protection against high contact temperatures.
