Pin corrosion and poor electrical connectivity plague most industries today and results in equipment downtime in automotive applications.

Innovative Products of America (IPA) announces a new tool, the Micro- Male Electrical Pin Cleaners (No. 8043), a 3-pc set for cleaning small, male pins commonly found on Deutsch, Cannon, Bullet and other round terminals. Each file features an innovative, diamond-abrasive coating on a unique, concave-design that contours to the male pin. The Micro-Male Electrical Pin Cleaners scrape away corrosion to rejuvenate electrical connections while aiding in diagnostic troubleshooting.
