DeWalt

DeWalt is a company manufacturing power tools for construction and woodworking industries. The company was founded in 1924, by Raymond E. DeWalt and has its headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland. DeWalt was reorganized in 1947 and started manufacturing radial arm saws and other stationary woodworking machines. The company was bought by American Machine & Foundry Co. Inc. in 1949 and it was sold to Black & Decker in 1960. In 1992, Black & Decker made a foremost effort to brand all its professional quality and high-end power tools as DeWalt.

DeWalt today, manufactures and sells more than 200 different power hand-tools and 800 accessories. DeWalt took over the German producer for high end wood, ELU, in 1994. This helped DeWalt to enlarge their assortment of cordless tools and other tools by utilizing ELU’s revolutionary technology. The company later announced its production of 36-volt power tool product line in 2005. This line was unveiled in 2006, in the International Builder's Show (IBS) in Orlando, Florida. Initially this product line included reciprocating saw, hammerdrill, jigsaw, 7.25inch circular saw, rotary hammer and impact wrench, among others. Many DeWalt products like the DeWalt hammer drill, screwdriver and cordless torch are available on many online shopping sites.
