US hvac toolmaker Imperial has signed a deal to distribute its Stride range in the UK through Advanced Engineering.
The Imperial range includes robust tube cutters, benders and flaring tools.

Advanced Engineering sales director Vern Klein said: 'Recently, the UK market for hvac tools has seen a worrying influx of cheap and flimsy Chinese copies, which don't even begin to approach the professional quality of the Stride Tool range. Low quality tools are, of course, a false economy - these Imperial models are harder-wearing, longer-lasting and better-designed than cheap, flimsy alternatives.'

Mr. Klein continued: 'Imperial has been seen in the UK before, but only in limited supply. We want to make this no-nonsense, top-quality equipment available to every ACR professional.'
