Hastings Releases New Reciprocating Insulated Saw Extension

HASTINGS, Mich.—Hastings Fiber Glass Products released a new Reciprocating Insulated Saw Extension, known as R.I.S.E., designed to give lineworkers added reach, control, and pruning versatility in the field.

Available as product 4006, the R.I.S.E. features a 6-foot insulated extension designed for use with a Milwaukee Hackzall® (part 2719-20). The 4006 measures 81 inches overall and weighs 9 pounds.
