Fein Power Tools - Brief History

Fein are experts when it comes to professional and extremely reliable power tools and special application solutions in the metal, interior work and automotive fields. As the inventors of the electric hand-held drill, Fein have been developing innovative and unbeatably efficient solutions for practical applications for 140 years; machines that have proven their worth even under the toughest continuous use by craftsmen and industrial operations alike.

The company Fein was founded in the year 1867 by the 25 year-old Wilhelm Emil Fein and his brother Carl. Following a series of acclaimed inventions, such as the electro-medical inductor, in 1895 Wilhelm Emil Fein constructed the world's first electric power tool: an electric hand drill. Fein has been at the forefront of technical development in these fields ever since.

Today, Fein is a company of world-wide renown which has carefully guarded its close links with the original founding family. One of Fein's most recent innovations is the Fein Multimaster which has developed from the unique experience that Fein has acquired in over 40 years in oscillation Technology. With the oscillating movement and particularly user-friendly accessories, the Fein Multimaster is an unbeatably versatile, high-precision specialist tool - perfect for all professional outfitting, renovation and repair work.

Fein's confidence in the quality and reliability of their tools is exuded by their Fein Plus warranty scheme which guarantees all Fein products for three years if they have been registered within the first six weeks after purchase.
