In the case of cable balancers, the cable force remains virtually identical across the entire length of the cable. The load (e.g. a tool) is not retracted by means of spring force but remains at its current position instead. Because the cable force does not change noticeably, it is possible to carry out very precise and delicate work even with heavy tools. Using balancers makes work less tiring even over longer periods of time and with heavy loads.

The hose balancers combine the properties of a cable balancer with those of a hose reel. In this case, the load is maintained by the hose instead of a cable. The hose 6,5 x 10 (interior x exterior) is equipped with a male thread R 1/4" and the compressed air is supplied via a female thread Rp 1/4".
