The heart of EVO 7
TLC TECHNOLOGY
Continual dynamic tension
allows potential for lateral movement throughout the cutting process. When the tie is cut, it snaps abruptly, jarring the users hand, resulting in a protruding, sharp edge.
• No jarring impact
• Clean, fl ush cut
• Minimal hand force needed
• No overstressing of cable tie
No, in this case, TLC doesn’t literally stand for “tender lovin
g
care”. But you can be sure plent
y
went into its development. In fact, our
engineers incorporated the advice and feedback of leadin
g ergo
nomic experts to perfect a tool
sp
ecifi cally designed to protect users from
the risks of repetitive-stress injuries. All of this results in healthier workers and better installations – TLC at its best.

that
dramatically
changes how cable ties are cut. The ke
y
is TLC’s ability to lock each tie in place at the desired tension prior to cuttin
g
. Because the tension is
fi xed at the tri
gg
er when squeezin
g
begins, only a minimum of hand force and a shorter ran
g
e of motion is required to cut throu
g
h each
tie. hat’s more, there’s no jarring impact after the cut. Also, because each tie is cut at a consistent level of tension with less movement
,
there’s less wear on internal components, resultin
g
in longer tool life

TENSION
Want to select a specifi c level of tie tension for bundling? Simply rotate the tension knob
to any of the easy-to-read, pre-set tension settings. Standard cable tie installation tools
stretch the tie while cutting, causing the tie end to retract into the head, or leave a
protruded edge. But with EVO 7, the tie is cut at precisely the tension you select for a
clean, fl ush cut at the tie head – without overstressing the tie.
LOCK
With TLC Technology, the patent-pending locking mechanism detects when the desired
tension is met, and locks the tie in place prior to cutting. At that moment, all force applied
to the trigger is directed to cutting the tie. That means the trigger only needs to be pulled
far enough to cut the tie, reducing the range of motion and subsequent strain on the hand
and arm.
Once the tie is locked in place, the tool operator needs only to advance the trigger
enough to cut the tie. Since there is no dynamic tension (stretching) on the cable tie, all
energy is focused on driving the blade through the tie, resulting in a clear, fl ush cut, time
after time – all with no jarring motion to the hand or arm.

TWO GRIP SPANS
Because hands come in different sizes, so
does EVO 7. Choose from a standard grip
span or short grip span, for smaller hands.
From the inside out, the EVO 7 was designed with user comfort and safety in mind. That’s
because the more you use a tool, the more you’re at risk to suffer a repetitive-stress injury.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, repetitive-stress injuries account for two-
thirds of all occupational injuries and result in the longest absences from work – a median of
18 days missed! The resulting costs are astronomical.
No wonder our engineers made ergonomics their highest priority. Of course, their focus
began with the development of TLC technology, which signifi cantly reduces the amount of
strain and impact on the user’s muscles and tendons. But there’s much more.
The EVO 7 is lightweight, with a handle designed to keep the wrist in an upright, neutral
position. Contoured to fi t the palm of the hand, the handle is crafted from soft, non-slip
material with a built-in air cushion to reduce pressure points. The soft-touch trigger even
features individual fi nger grips for greater comfort and control. Add it all up and the
EVO 7 is one very handy tool, indeed.

always remains the same. Want
to lock in a desired tension? Just
remove the screw from the thumb

TESTIMONIALS
“It used to be that at the end of a day of working on small harnesses, my hand would just ache.
With EVO 7, that’s no longer an issue. I also like the numbered tension settings and the screw
hole so you can lock in your setting. It’s the best tool I’ve ever used!”
MIKE T. Installer - Wire Harness Assembler
“It just fi ts my hand. Cutting is much smoother, too. None of that jerking motion like with other
tools. Much easier on my hands and arms. And the cuts are clean—I don’t have to go back and
trim at all. The work goes much easier and much faster. It’s the best tool I’ve ever tried.”
MICHELE B. Installer - Major Aeronautics Manufacturer
“I can barely feel it when I cut the tie strap. It’s much easier on my wrist. Adjusting the tension is
easy, too. You just twist the knob to the number you want and it clicks in. With other tools, you’re
always guessing. If I were rating them, other tools would be a ‘5’. EVO 7 is a ‘10’!”
LUZ L. Installer - Major Aeronautics Manufacturer
“The difference is amazing. This tool is much easier to squeeze and very smooth. Everybody
likes it. It’s good for morale and good for our people, long-term. The EVO 7 also cuts very fl ush.
In our business, that’s important for quality and safety. We can’t leave any sharp edges. Our
cuts have never been so clean.”
