HITACHI POWER TOOLS
In April 2017, our parent company in Japan, Koki Holdings Co, Ltd., partnered with KKR, a leading global investment firm as they saw tremendous potential in our future. Moving onward, we transitioned to Metabo HPT in North America with unlimited possibilities. Same tools, new name- that's all. We represent the same people, the same look, the same performance, the same warranties, the same feel and the same experience provided to the user. We are the leading pneumatic brand in North America and as we change our name to Metabo HPT we are launching technology that changes how power tools will be used on the job site.
We continue our legacy of innovation with the launch of MultiVolt; a revolutionary MultiVolt Triple Hammer Corded Option or Cordless Option innovation that is changing job sites as we know it. MultiVolt allows the end-user to have one tool that can be used as both a cordless or corded tool- you decide. It can be cordless with the 36V 4.0Ah battery or plug into a power source with the award-winning AC Adapter where the application supports being plugged in. The technology allows the tool to deliver the same power no matter if used cordless or corded. The 36V battery is also backwards compatible delivering 8.0Ah of run time in our Metabo HPT 18V cordless platform including the popular cordless nailer line. Our focus is dedicated to the end users' application and providing solutions to their challenges. This versatility and choice of power supply will continue to expand as more tools are launched on the MultiVolt platform.
