It was originally named E.T. Lufkin Board and Log Rule Manufacturing Company. Its Canadian manufacturing plant was first at Windsor, Ontario, and later at Barrie, Ontario. The company\'s headquarters and chief U.S. manufacturing plant later moved to Saginaw, Michigan, and remained there for decades. The company was acquired in 1967 by Cooper Industries, which aimed to create a stable of hand tools brands through acquisitions. The Saginaw plant was soon closed and a new plant in Apex, North Carolina became the chief U.S. manufacturing plant. The brand was a member of the Cooper Tools group until that group was sold off to form Apex Tool Group in 2012 and Cooper Industries was acquired by Eaton Corporation.
