Introduction to the Rupes HLR 15 Unveiled at SEMA late last year, Rupes finally uncovered their take on a battery powered 5 and 6-inch polisher. New BigFoot iBrid Polishers HLR21 HLR15 - Rupes tools While Rupes led the industry with the iBrid Nano machines, it took them a while to bring larger sized battery machines to market. The first was released a couple of years ago, the 3-inch HLR 75, or Stiletto as it has become known. But it's the 5 and 6-inch machines many were asking for.
