Metcal Announces Fall Savings - Buy 4 MX-500 Soldering Systems, Get 1 Free
October 23, 2015 | MetcalEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Metcal announced its fall special. Customers who buy four (4) MX-500S, MX-500AV or MX-500UF systems will get a system of the same or lesser value for free (up to a $585.00 value). The promotion is effective immediately and runs through Dec. 31, 2015.
Choose from three different hand-piece configurations: The MX-500S with original MX-RM3E hand-piece, MX-500AV with Metcal Advanced™ hand-piece, or MX-500UF with Metcal Ultrafine™ hand-piece. Now is a great time to try the reimagined MX-500 Soldering System. The MX-500 has new features, including a built-in net power meter that displays the power applied to the cartridge, ground fault interrupt that detects power line ground failures, and a universal power supply that allows for worldwide operation without adaptors. All systems include the power supply, hand-piece and work stand.
This offer is only available through participating Metcal distributors in North America. It is okay to purchase a mix of configurations, but the free system must be the same or lesser value as a majority of the purchased systems.
