Hammerhead Wins 2015 Pro Tool Innovation Awards For Rechargeable Screwdriver And 50-Piece Screw Driving Bit Kit
Powerful Hammerhead Tools Solve Everyday Challenges
CHICAGO, Oct. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Hammerhead has earned expert recognition from Pro Tool Innovation Awards as being among the best and brightest new products in the residential and commercial construction and landscaping industries. Hammerhead won 2015 Pro Tool Innovation Awards for its 4V Lithium Rechargeable Screwdriver and 50-Piece Screw Driving Bit Kit. A panel of judges representing tool professionals from across the United States weighed in on entries from top global manufacturers to select Pro Tool Innovation Award winners.
The Pro Tool Innovation Award judges had this to say about the Hammerhead 4V Lithium Rechargeable Screwdriver: "..having the right tool for the job can really save you time—and it's a lot harder to find something that does a lot of things well without compromising significantly in each area. The Hammerhead 4V screwdriver combines a cordless screwdriver, wire strippers, non-contact live-wire voltage detector, and LED work light all into one. The Hammerhead HCSD040 4V rechargeable screwdriver can detect current from up to 1 inch away, which it communicates with both a buzzing noise and a rapidly blinking red light. It will detect voltage at an outlet, or when in proximity to live wires—within an electrical box, or from an object plugged into an active circuit."
The Hammerhead 50-Piece Screw Driving Bit Kit earned these comments from the Pro Tool Innovation Award judges: "...it's important to note that the claim to fame here is the very simple, but effective, Bit Grip magnetic collar. It works on any 2″ bit—not just those from Hammerhead (score one for flexibility and cross-platform love). The Bit Grip system lets you truly perform one-handed fastening. I don't know about you, but I get real tired of dropping screws and fasteners on the ground when I'm trying to accomplish simple fastening tasks with my impact driver. The Bit Grip eliminates this by using a magnetic collar with a more expensive rare earth magnet that has a holding force 4x stronger than insert bit holders using standard magnets. Because the kit includes a standard 1/4″ hex extender that works with 1″ bits, I found that swapping out bits with the magnetic Bit Grip collar was both simple, quick, and intuitive."
"As manufacturers strive to go the extra mile to add useful and often game-changing innovations to their product offerings, we want to point them out so our Pro readers know who's leading the pack," said Clint DeBoer, executive director of the Pro Tool Innovation Awards. "These manufacturers and companies have truly earned a coveted spot in the toolbox of any tradesman, contractor, or construction professional."
"The Hammerhead brand and these tools in particular have been designed to help people work smarter" said Joe Turoff, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Chervon. "We are very proud that the experts with Pro Tool Innovation awards recognize the innovation and value inherent in Hammerhead tools."
