In the 1990s the Elu powertools brand was dropped in the UK. The 'dw' part of the model number was changed to 'RAS', when it was an Elu radial arm saw, 'EBS' when it was a band saw and so on. It did include in it some very good angle grinders, polishers and double ended grinders.It was discontinued with no models making it into other ranges.For a time the DeWalt name was dropped in favour of Elu. The Black and Decker professional range never really had the credibility the other two brands had. If the model number had an L at the very end this meant it was low voltage110v.

We have dealt with Black and Decker for over thirty years selling both DeWalt and Elu power tools. To confuse things even more Black and Decker has in turn recently been acquired by another American tool giant Stanley Tools. This world famous company also includes the German power tool brand Elu. DeWalt is the professional division of the American power tool manufacturer Black and Decker. ![]()
