Biggie Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I think this topic covers it in more detail but yes they are owned by the same parent company but still two separate tool lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 The power tool division of Hitachi was bought out which means the name had to change because the rights to the name did not come with the purchase. The company that made the purchase changed the name to Metabo HPT. It was an interesting name change considering they also own Metabo (without the hpt). I think the fact that their names are so similar, people are going to mistake one brand for the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
