Rena ProTab / Secap Jet 1 Tabber (Used)
Description
The original Rena ProTab is a tabletop tabber with a simple family secret: it was built by Ameritek, and it’s essentially the same machine as the Secap Jet 1 tabber — same unit, different badge. If you’re searching for either name, you’re looking at the same platform.
One important distinction: don’t confuse this original ProTab with today’s ProTab 4.0 — that’s a different, current-production machine built by Astro Machine (the ATS-9950). Different OEM, different era, different animal.
Used units come through the market from time to time. Every refurbished machine we sell crosses our own bench in Feasterville, PA (see exactly what our refurbishing process involves). 90-day warranty standard on refurbished equipment; extended coverage available — just ask.
