burndy power tools made in china

A : BURNDY engineers our Connectors, Tools, and Dies to all work together as part of the BURNDY Engineered System. This includes design, testing, and manufacturing of the Connectors, Tools, and Dies which allows us to warranty these connections and meet the requirements of standards such as UL, CSA, IEEE, ANSI, and others. Other companies may manufacture crimp tools certified for use with listed connectors, but we do not recommend this as we do not typically qualify other manufacturers’ tools with our connectors.

Hubbell Incorporated is an American company that designs, manufactures, and sells electrical and electronic products for non-residential and residential construction, industrial, and utility applications. Hubbell was founded by Harvey Hubbell as a proprietorship in 1888, and was incorporated in Connecticut in 1905. It is ranked 602 by Fortune.Orange, Connecticut,Shelton, Connecticut.World War II by manufacturing military vehicle electrical circuits, battery-charging systems for M4 Sherman tanks, power jacks for test meters, vacuum tube sockets for radio communications, and a line of electrical and electronic connectors for aircraft. Hubbell Inc. is in List of S&P 400 companies having stocks that are included in the stock market index, maintained by S&P Dow Jones Indices.

Soon he discovered that he had to design machinery to make its parts. One of the first was a tapping machine, also his patent. Around 1896 with his business in machinery progressing, Hubbell"s next patent was a major breakthrough in the fastener industry: the process and machinery for cold rolled screw threads which reduced the rate of material lost in production by more than 50%. He designed and built progressive blanking and forming dies, patented machinery to slot screw heads, a machine to assemble screws and small parts, devised tools to indicate speed, and patented a changeable speed screwdriver. Hubbell"s idea was to provide convenience, safety, and control to an electric light with his new "pull socket" which was patented in August 1896.

Harvey Hubbell III soon showed that he had inherited his father"s twin acumen for product innovation and business development. In product innovation, he devised the company"s lines of Twist-Lock industrial connectors with new 2-,3-,and 4-wire devices of various ratings, designed a whole new series of locking connectors for industrial use which he named "Hubbellock", and introduced heavy-duty, circuit-breaking devices. The company played a large part in the war effort by meeting the demand for electrical components and systems to power the nation"s industries and by developing products for the special applications needed by military. These included components for military vehicle electrical circuits, battery-charging systems for M-4 tanks, power jacks for test meters, vacuum tube sockets for radio communications, and a line of electrical and electronic connectors for aircraft. The company"s years of experience in building devices reliable enough for industrial use was a valuable asset in the production of products which could perform under rugged battlefield conditions. A second plant was opened in Lexington, Kentucky, in order to meet the demand and as a safety measure since the main plant in Bridgeport was considered vulnerable to air or sea attack.

The company"s sales in new products and continuing lines increased proportionately to these successes, but more was to come as Harvey Hubbell, Incorporated added diversification. Beginning in 1960, the company entered a new period of rapidly expanding growth in both sales and income. Much of the growth resulted from the company"s internal product development, a longstanding Hubbell tradition, and a source which expanded under the industry leadership of Harvey Hubbell III and other Hubbell engineers. A second source of growth through acquisition. 1960 onwards to till now Hubbell Incorporated has acquired many brands working for power, electric, lighting sectors. Hubbell Incorporated has grown to be an international manufacturer of electrical and electronic products for a broad range of non-residential and residential construction, industrial, and utility applications
