Recent Company History

Over the last few months, Stanley Black & Decker has focused on portfolio reshaping and operational leadership while maintaining its DEWALT brand presence. On Dec 22, 2025, the company agreed to sell its Consolidated Aerospace Manufacturing business for $1.8 billion, and related disclosures coincided with a 3.42% share gain. Earlier in December, it announced the upcoming Feb 4, 2026 earnings release and appointed a new Chief Global Supply Chain Officer, which also saw a positive price reaction. Today’s DEWALT product expansion fits this narrative of refocusing on core tools and jobsite solutions.

Investors may monitor how these product launches support growth in core tools alongside upcoming earnings on Feb 4, 2026.

Key Terms

cordless, impact energy, brushless, duplex nailer, +4 more

8 terms

cordless technical

"the most powerful cordless cut-off saw in the industry across power source"

Cordless describes a device that operates without a fixed power cord, using batteries or wireless connections instead; think of it as the difference between a wall-tethered lamp and a rechargeable flashlight. For investors, cordless products matter because they often signal consumer preference for convenience and mobility, can command higher prices or recurring sales for batteries and chargers, and may affect manufacturing costs, warranty claims and aftermarket service opportunities.

impact energy technical

"Hex Demolition Hammer delivering up to 45 joules of impact energy"

Impact energy measures the amount of energy transferred when two objects collide, essentially quantifying the “punch” of a single hit—think of it as how hard a ball would strike a wall. For investors, it matters because it’s used in safety and durability tests and regulatory approvals for products (from helmets to machinery and vehicles); higher or lower impact energy ratings affect liability, compliance costs, warranty exposure, and marketability of products.

brushless technical

"20V MAX* XR® Brushless 21° Plastic Collated Duplex Nailer"

A brushless motor is an electric motor that eliminates the carbon brushes found in older motors and uses electronic controls to switch current instead. That design makes the motor quieter, more efficient, longer-lasting and lower-maintenance—like replacing a mechanical relay with a silent, precise electronic controller. For investors, brushless technology often means lower operating costs, better product performance and stronger competitive advantages in sectors such as electric vehicles, drones, appliances and industrial equipment.

duplex nailer technical

"Brushless 21° Plastic Collated Duplex Nailer"

A duplex nailer is a handheld tool that drives two staggered nails into wood or other materials—one fully set and the second left slightly protruding—so parts can be temporarily held together and later separated without damage. For investors, it highlights a niche product feature that can boost appeal in construction and manufacturing by improving job speed, reducing rework and creating steady demand for compatible nails and replacement parts, which affects sales and margins.

dust extractor technical

"60V MAX* Cordless Dust Extractor or the 10 Gallon DWV015 Dust Extractor"

A dust extractor is an industrial machine that captures and removes airborne dust and small particles from production areas, similar to a large, high-powered vacuum for a factory. It matters to investors because it affects workplace safety, environmental compliance, equipment longevity and production efficiency; companies may need to invest in or maintain these systems to avoid fines, reduce downtime and protect product quality, which can influence costs and profitability.

wireless tool control technical

"equipped with WIRELESS TOOL CONTROL, allowing users to sync with and remotely activate"

Wireless tool control is a system that tracks, powers, and communicates with handheld or mounted tools without cables, using radio or similar links to monitor their location, status and use. It matters to investors because it turns ordinary tools into smart assets—improving safety, cutting downtime and maintenance costs, and creating data that can drive productivity, compliance and recurring-service revenue.

active vibration control technical

"features SHOCKS Active Vibration Control® technology which helps reduce vibration"

Active vibration control is a technology that uses sensors to detect unwanted shaking or noise and small motors or actuators to produce opposing forces that cancel it out, like noise-cancelling headphones for motion. For investors, it matters because it can improve product performance, reliability and user comfort, reduce warranty and maintenance costs, and enable lighter or higher-performing designs that may provide a competitive edge or open new markets.

battery voltage technical

"Maximum initial battery voltage (measured without a workload) is 20 volts."

Battery voltage is the electrical pressure measured across a battery’s terminals that drives current through a device, similar to how water pressure pushes water through a pipe. For investors, voltage is a key indicator of a battery’s design and suitability for applications — it affects performance, energy delivery, charging behavior, safety and compatibility with electronics, all of which influence product value, manufacturing costs and regulatory risks.
