When it comes to concrete demo and construction Chicago Pneumatic has been a leader in the industry for many years. To further expand their offering coming Spring 2015 CP is launching 3 new concrete trowels the STG245, STG365 and STG465. These new trowels will feature Honda engines, compatible trowel blades and new safety features to protect workers on the jobsite. You’ve probably seen the “Concrete Buffer Gone Wild” video below, as 7 million + others have already. This demonstrates a very real safety risk, although attempting to be comical in this video (luckily nobody was injured) it represents a problem which the new CP trowels have fixed.
These seem like the logical next step to the CP Compaction Equipment launched a few years ago which use the same Honda motors and have been extremely popular with professionals because of their aggressive pricing and solid performance. The guys at CP assured us the new trowel units will offer the same level of performance/reliability and should fall right in line with equally aggressive pricing. Below is a quick look at the units from the most recent World of Concrete. More info and price should be available very soon on these new units.
