At Albion Engineering, we’re committed to continually improving our products while making it easier for our customers to do business with us. As part of that commitment, by the end of August 2026, we will be transitioning the 640-4 and 640-5 Backer Rod Insertion Tools to the 640-7 Backer Rod Insertion Tool.
The 640-7 combines the capabilities of both legacy models into one versatile tool, simplifying product selection while delivering the precision, consistency, and comfort professionals expect from Albion.
As we complete this transition:
For distributors, this transition also simplifies inventory by replacing two SKUs with one, making product recommendations easier while offering customers Albion’s most advanced backer rod insertion tool.
The 640-7 was designed to improve both ease of use and installation consistency.
Key features include:
We are working closely with our distributors to ensure a seamless transition to the 640-7. If you’re currently using a 640-4 or 640-5, you can continue to rely on your existing tool, knowing that replacement parts will remain available.
If you have questions about the transition or would like assistance selecting the right replacement tool, please contact your local distributor or Albion representative.
You can also reach our Customer Service team at (856) 235-6688 or sales@albioneng.com.
Thank you for your continued trust in Albion Engineering. We appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to provide the quality tools professionals have relied on since 1929.
