Earthquake Anchor
A STEEL SPINE within the structure of a building providing support to withstand seismic shocks without affecting its external appearance, is the purpose of this anchor. A combination of vertical, horizontal or diagonal anchors are linked together using special fixings, creating an internal spine of steel within the structure to be strengthened.

Crane Body
MEETING THE requirements for larger lifts and more versatility, this model can be equipped with a telescopic crane. The package crane provides from 5,000 pounds of lift at 11 feet to 2,600 pounds at 20 feet. It is corner-mounted for maximum horizontal reach. It also comes with eight service body compartments of 14 and 12 gauge galvanized steel, a flow-away perimeter, seamless door design incorporates one-piece weather stripping that allows water to flow out along the door's edges away from the compartment opening. IMT 500 Highway 18 West, P.O. Box 189, Garner, IA 50438-0189.
Tape Measures
THE NEW tapes offer maximum durability and measuring accuracy for virtually every long distance application, while the eye-catching color of the case stand out on the job site. Fiberglass tapes feature an increased number of fiberglass strands for less stretch and improved accuracy. The blades are 9/16" wide, have easy-to-read graphics for more accurate measurements, and are made with PVC so the tape can be easily cleaned, wound wet, and won't rust. For convenience, the fiberglass and steel tapes feature longer cranks for fast and easy winding and a two-position end hook. Stanley Tools, 600
