R-TECH

R-TECH is Rapid’s exclusive own brand, offering tried and trusted technology across a broad range of products. From electromechanical components to electronic production supplies and so much more,
R-TECH provides quality solutions at an affordable price.

Tried

We have developed the R-TECH range specifically for industrial and trade customers looking for good quality and value. Only those products that pass our stringent quality requirements and compliance checks will receive the R-TECH branding. They have been proven over years of use and experience, and any new products will be approved by experts before becoming part of the range. Anyone buying an R-TECH product does so with high expectations; our promise is to deliver on those.

Trusted

An R-TECH product comes with a recommendation of quality from both ourselves and customers who have used the products in the past. You will already know many of these products through the former ‘Rapid’ or ‘Tru’ brands, and we have countless customer reviews that talk of reliability, quality and value. Our solder range in particular is highly respected in its own right and one of our bestselling products. This is the benchmark for all R-TECH products – tried and trusted tech that ticks every box.

Products will be supported by completely updated and redesigned datasheets which feature more detailed technical and compliance information than ever before - giving customers the confidence to integrate R-TECH products into their designs.

This is just the start. We will be adding more products to the R-TECH range all the time, combining high quality and great value. Keep checking this page and your emails for the latest R-TECH products.
