Hand tools take the stage

Hyde Tools introduces a new look, attitude, and more than 57 new hand tools and products
Hyde Tools has unveiled a wealth of new products in the company's hand tool offerings. In a new drywall line, Hyde offers 183 products (including 57 new items), such as hawks, taping tools, joint knives, cornerbread tools, knockdown knives and vacuum sanders.
The MAXXGRIP Pro series includes 41 products, from putty knives, joint knives and taping knives to paint "pull" scrapers; and each is ergonomically designed with a soft-grip handle and wider Hammer Head end for setting nails.
The AnglePRO airless spray tip extension, one of several new spray application tools, includes a patented design that lets the user change the painting angle while working; and saves substantial time, allowing crews to paint more houses during a season.
The Bear Claw drywall clips and Wet & Set wall and ceiling repair patch allow fast, same-day patching of virtually any damaged surface.
