Join the Conversation! New Forum Added to Gorilla Nuts™ Website

allison — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 23:00:19 +0000

April 12, 2012 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

O’FALLON, MO—The website dedicated solely to Gorilla Nuts Cushion Grip Wire Connectors, www.gorillanuts.com, has added a new interactive page, the Gorilla Nuts Forum. The forum is designed to give Electricians a chance to talk amongst one another regarding their opinion of wire connectors and their preferred methods to splice wires.

The www.gorillanuts.com website is a site designed by King Innovation dedicated to the best selling electrical wire connector. The site’s new blog-style forum allows users to post comments, and have conversations with one another without creating a login or an account. VP of Sales & Marketing Justin McKinney says, “We have gotten our feet wet in the world of social media and are interested in the opportunities available for industry professionals to connect. We are excited for the chance to become an integral part of the conversation.”

Gorilla nuts are specifically designed with an over-molded material that creates a cushion sensation, a flexible grip, and most importantly stops hand pain due to repetitive twisting of hard wire connectors. A Torque Performance Exterior (TPE) means that Gorilla Nuts out-perform comparable wire connectors when it comes to grip and torque. The patented Gorilla Nuts design is also the first to feature Sharp Wire Technology combined with a dual performing WorkSkirt. Sharp Wire Technology means that the spring is square cut with a maximum edge for the most secure connections. The WorkSkirt not only protects over-stripped wires, but also allows Gorilla Nuts the flexibility to fit into tight spaces.

Snap Up Some Cash: Receive $10 for Every Bucket of SnapTap® Saddles Purchased

allison — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 15:02:36 +0000

February 1, 2012 – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

O’FALLON, MO—King Innovation® wants to reward Irrigation Contractors for using SnapTap® Saddles. King will send a $10.00 check for every bucket of SnapTap or Universal SnapTap saddles purchased. Just look inside each bucket for the rebate form!

Now available in convenient large capacity “contractor carry” buckets, SnapTap Saddles are designed with care and have a variety of contractor-friendly features. A side snap latch means visible and secure connection around the pipe. King’s patented cutting tip cleanly cuts through polyethylene pipe, rather than pushing through like competitive saddles. This allows for a tight, perfect seal every time. In addition, these saddles install quickly and easily, with the short thread tap design and ergonomic hurricane handle. Think 35% fewer tap turns and 8% less torque required for installation!

For specification sheets, free sample requests, high resolution images, or to contact a representative, please visit us online at www.kinginnovation.com or at www.gorillanuts.com.
