Affordable Ring Filing, Better Hole Cutting, and Precision Heat: The Latest Tools from Summit Racing

Filing piston rings, cutting holes in sheetmetal, and heating stuff up are basic gearhead tasks, and Summit Racing has new tools to help you do those jobs better. Read on.

Summit Racing™ USA-1 Piston Ring Filers
Just like our full-boogie Summit Racing™ Pro Ring Filers, our USA-1 Piston Ring Filers make it easy to accurately gap piston rings, but are powered by your electric or cordless drill to save you some money. Made in the USA, the USA-1 filers’ precision table action allows a full sweep across the grinding wheel face to create even ring gaps. The adjustment knob is marked in 0.001 inch increments so you can precisely dial-in the gap you want. Once you verify you have the proper end gap on the first ring, just lock in that same setting to gap the rest. It sure beats the heck out of using a manual ring filer.

The Summit Racing USA-1 Piston Ring Filers have a durable powdercoat finish in your choice of 10 colors.

Milwaukee Tool Hole Dozer Hole Saw Sets
It’s demoralizing to reach for a hole saw to notch tubing or cut a hole in sheetmetal and find out it’s as dull as dishwater. Reach for a Milwaukee Hole Dozer Hole Saw Instead. Milwaukee’s Rip Guard design adds 8% cobalt to the steel alloy, and puts more of that steel behind the tooth cutting edges. That makes the teeth stronger so they can handle tougher material without wearing as quickly as teeth on lesser hole saws. Milwaukee is so confident the Hole Dozers work better and last longer, it covers them with a limited lifetime tooth breakage warranty.

Milwaukee Hole Dozer hole saws have all-access slots for easy plug material removal and increased pilot bit visibility for accurate placement and faster chip ejection to keep the cut cool. They also have a thermal coating for faster cutting and optimized use with cordless tools; Milwaukee says you can cut 25% more holes per charge.

Summit Racing carries Hole Dozer hole saw sets with saw sizes from 7/8 inch up to five inches. They come with the required arbors and high-speed pilot bits.

Titan Tools Vaper Mini Heat Gun
Using a full-size heat gun to set shrink tubing and wrap, remove decals, and other small jobs is like using a flamethrower to deal with a housefly. Rated at 350 watts and 662 degrees F maximum temperature, the Titan Tools Vaper Mini Heat Gun can easily handle those tasks, and has a built-in heat deflector to prevent damage to adjacent wiring, electronics, plastics, and other delicate items. It also has a swing-down stand for hands-free use.
