Lateral Tension Tool Buyer’s Guide: KECO’s Advanced Tools for Precise Dent Repair

At KECO, we understand that dent repairs require a range of tools to cover all stages of the process—from roughing out the damage to fine-tuning the final result. Our Lateral Tension Tools (LTT) are designed to give you the precision, power, and flexibility needed to tackle any dent. Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the right tool for your needs.

The Repair Continuum: Rough Out to Finish

We think of every repair as a continuum. On the left side, you have roughing out (using powerful tools for major reshaping), and on the right side, you have finish work (where precise, controlled tools are key).

LTT BEAM: Finish Work Tool

The LTT BEAM is designed for the finish side of the continuum. It applies minimal force for fine-tuning and refining dents without disturbing the surrounding area. Perfect for delicate crown areas or small adjustments, it’s ideal for technicians who need precision without heavy force.

Best for:

  • Fine-tuning and finish work.

  • Delicate areas that need precision.

K-Power & K-Power Jr.: Rough Out to Mid-Range Power

The K-Power (36”) and K-Power Jr. (18”) are built for the rough out to mid-range stages. They offer higher powerto reshape larger dents and perform heavy-duty repairs. The K-Power is great for aggressive reshaping, while the K-Power Jr. provides similar power in a more compact form.

Best for:

  • Rough out and mid-range repairs.

  • Heavy-duty reshaping and larger dents.

Choosing the Right Tool

  • LTT BEAM: For finish work with minimal force and high precision.

  • K-Power: For rough out and mid-range repairs with powerful shaping.

  • K-Power Jr.: For mid-range repairs with a compact design but high power.

Each tool is designed to excel at a specific part of the repair process, ensuring you get the best results every time.
