Following the success of the original Trend Routabout, the unique floor access routing template, Trend has now launched a smaller diameter version, ideal for plumbers and electricians.
A 108mm diameter opening can be cut in the floor, allowing access to junction boxes or cables and is ideal for making repairs to accidental damage made to the floor during house construction.
The floor can be made good in seconds saving time and money.
It is designed for use on new or existing 18mm or 22mm chipboard or similar floors.
The Mini Routabout cuts only the thickness of the board so that cables and pipes are not damaged.
A suitable router is required with a minimum of 750 watts.
The Mini-Routabout includes a special router cutter, a guide bush, a template and plastic insert covers which are used to replace the waste piece to plug the access hole.
Priced at just £40.50 exc VAT for the 18mm Routabout Kit and £42.00 exc VAT for the 22mm, the Mini Routabout is an affordable, effective system and is available from all Trend Routing Centres and stockists.
Packs of spare covers are also available.
To request further information and details of your nearest Trend stockist, please call 0800 487363 or visit their website at www.trend-uk.com.
