Wagner SprayTech FURNO 750 Receives Pro Tool Innovation Award
Award recognizes tools for precise, efficient performance capabilities
MINNEAPOLIS — Sept. 26, 2018 — Wagner SprayTech, a market leader in advanced paint applicators, recently received a Pro Tool Innovation Award for the Wagner SprayTech FURNO 750 in the Cordlles Power Tools – Heat Gun category.
The Pro Tool Innovation Awards program is hosted annually by Pro Tool Reviews and awards are selected by industry professionals and trade media representatives based on innovation. This year, nearly 300 entries were submitted by more than 60 manufacturers. Winners demonstrated achievement in any combination of the following: innovative features, advanced power delivery, groundbreaking ergonomics, technological advancements, and value.
“Manufacturers are consistently improving their tools. Each year, however, some exceed the norm and develop products that truly deserve recognition,” said Clint DeBoer, executive director of the Pro Tool Innovation Awards. “The Pro Tool Innovation Awards recognize best-in-class products that are ahead of their time.”
Suitable for frequent use, Wagner’s FURNO 750 redefines the user experience with optimized ergonomics, comfort, usability, and safety. It has 117 temperature settings and five fan speeds for exact temperature control between 125°F to 1,300°F. A push-button control allows the user to precisely set the temperature—easily read on the digital LCD display. A memory function saves the last temperature and fan settings, and a cool-down mode safely reduces the temperature and prolongs the ceramic element’s life.
“What our team really likes about Wagner’s FURNO 750 is the combination of 117 temperature settings and LCD display,” reported the Pro Tool Innovation Award judges. “That screen takes the guesswork out of the equation when you need to maintain a specific temperature range to get the job done as efficiently and safely as possible.”
The gun also has side supports to prevent the hot nozzle from touching surfaces when set down, and it includes an integrated stand for safe, upright, hands-free operation. The FURNO 750 comes standard with a curved deflector nozzle, concentrator nozzle, 5-in-1 painter’s tool, and a case.
“We are honored to receive this recognition, especially since it reflects input from professional users who use tools like this every day,” said Jon Beaton, product director for Wagner. “At Wagner, we are committed to continually finding new ways to improve the user experience, so our customers can safely complete jobs with maximum efficiency and effectiveness.”
