Abstract

The article discusses durability as the most important factor to consider when it comes to hand-held electric power tools. It discusses the elements which contractors who work with tools consider when choosing these tools and how manufacturers ensure the durability of their tools. It describes the characteristics of well-built tool housings, motors and gearboxes and explains how lithium-ion batteries (LI) have replaced Nickel-Cadmium batteries because they can store more energy.
