| | Metabo is a leading international manufacturer of professional grade portable electric power tools and abrasives for industrial, construction and welding applications.
Metabo is a leading manufacturer of high quality, professional/industrial grade power tools and abrasives for virtually every kind of work.
The company's product developments have focused on technological advancements in electronic circuitry and mechanical design, which have resulted in the consistently high performance and durability of its power tools. Widely used in welding, construction, and other industrial markets, Metabo's tools are renown globally for providing exceptional levels of power, precision, and safety. Precision and superior performance are such strong corporate philosophies that Metabo also manufactures chucks for its drills and hammer drills -- the only manufacturer to do so.
As the first to mass-produce electric drills with an integral percussion mechanism (hammer drills) in 1957, Metabo is credited with pioneering a new development phase for many electric tool manufacturers. Today, Metabo's power tools are constructed with computer-assisted design (CAD) and employ microelectronics that simplify the operation of the tools and ensure a long working life. Additionally, the tools offer some of the industry's most innovative safety and operational features, including:
· Thermal Overload Protection: disengages tool when it reaches an elevated temperature
· Slip Clutch: helps protect tool and operator from excessive back-twist torque
· Wheel Guards: can be conveniently repositioned without the use of tools
The company has US headquarters in West Chester, PA and international headquarters in Nürtingen, Germany. | |
