Festool USA launches its first premium hand tool line

Festool USA has announced the launch of its first ever premium hand tool line set to launch 17 November.

Festool’s new Limited-Edition Installation Kit delivers an efficient solution for organizing and transporting hand tools easily.

The Installation Kit, situated in the latest generation of Festool systainer organizers, comes equipped with labelled tools and easy to read organiser trays which can be seen through a transparent lid. The installation kit is also stackable with other Festool systainers.

The new kits are packed with five categories of tools in a range of fixed and adjustable sizes.

The components of the Installation Kit consist of an adjustable wrench, ratcheting combination wrenches, screwdrivers, nut drivers, and a hex key set with a holder. The tools are available as either an Imperial or a Metric set. Each will cost $225.

Rick Bush, VP of marketing said: “Festool has long been recognized as a best-in-class manufacturer of power tools, and our customers will find that same premium quality and innovation in these hand tools and the organizational system included in the new Installation Kit”
