Astro Branding

[Jack Ryan]

Just curious, what, if any, is the connection between:

Astro Pneumatic.
Astro Products and
Astro Tools?

Which are manufacturers and which are distributors?

Of the manufactures, where is the manufacturing done? Some seems to be Japanese.

Sorry if this has been answered already and I missed it.

I think Astro Pneumatic and Astro Tools are the same thing. Not sure about Astro Products. Both are manufacturers. Most of their manufacturing is in Taiwan.

Thanks Fedwrench.

What they say "about us" is not very clear. Astro Pneumatic sells tool labelled Astro tools and uses the stylised AP logo. Astro Products (Japan) also uses a stylised AP logo and sells products from Astro Products and Koken.

Is Astro Pneumatic an American reseller or does it own factories?

Astro Products is like the Harbor Freight of Japan.
A lot of house branded chinese stock.
But they also carry other tool brands like Tone, KTC, Vessel, Knipex, etc...

OK, thanks.

I got some "Low Profile Nano Impact Sockets" a while back and I am quite happy with them - particularly for access. I was trying to find where they came from.
