Sears Adds Hitachi Tools to Retail and Online Stores

Sears Adds Hitachi Tools to Retail and Online Stores

Consumers can now shop sears.com for a full line of products from Hitachi, including lithium-ion drill/drivers, power saws, routers, work lights and more.

Hitachi’s high-powered HXP lithium ion battery technology is up to 40 percent lighter than standard Ni-Cad and Ni-Mh batteries with three times the battery life. The HXP battery is the power behind Hitachi’s 18-volt 1.5Ah Lithium Ion 1/2-inch Compact Pro Driver Drill. Featuring an 18-volt Lithium Ion slide battery, the Compact Pro Driver Drill delivers professional power in one of the most compact, lightweight and ergonomic tool bodies on the market: 7.7-inches long and only 3.5 pounds.

The HXP battery technology is also featured in Hitachi’s Micro Series, which provides lots of power in a smaller package. Offerings in the Micro Series include the 12-volt Peak 3/8-inch Lithium Ion Micro Driver Drill and the 3.6-volt Lithium Ion Screwdriver. Hitachi’s lithium ion tools are backed by a 10-year tool warranty.

“We’re excited to add Hitachi to the roster of tools available from [Sears]. [Sears] is committed to delivering innovative tools at an exceptional value and the addition of Hitachi helps us deliver on that promise. Hitachi’s innovative designs and durable features, including their lithium-ion tools backed by a 10-year warranty, are a perfect addition to Sears’ collection of more than 30,000 tools from more than 400 national brands.”

– Steve Light, senior vice president tools and hardware for Sears Holdings

Hitachi also offers a variety of saws featuring Hitachi’s adjustable Laser Marker System, which delivers exact alignment and predictable blade placement for accurate cuts. The 10-inch Compound Miter Saw with Laser Marker is one of the lightest saws in its class. The aggressive design is coupled with a powerful 15-Amp motor, vibration-reducing horizontal handle, and Hitachi’s laser marker system.
