Congratulations are in order for the following six pages of Professional Tool & Equipment News 2010 Innovation Awards winners!

PTEN’s panel of active and independent techs, shop owners, mechanics and tool distributors scrutinized the nominees, originally listed in the February and March 2010 issues. (No one from the PTEN staff served in a judging capacity).

These products were selected as the top in a close contest. Of special note is the Inductor U-555 from Induction Innovations, which was the highest-rated tool of all.

Again, PTEN commends all the winning companies, as well as all those behind the nearly 80 products submitted for judging. The auto repair market continually needs new innovative tools and equipment, and we salute all the companies for their contributions to the repair shop.
