Soldering tools from Troy

The company's contact page states that "American Beauty & Esico Triton tools are manufactured in Troy, Michigan." The legal company is Assembly Technologies International, Inc., at 1937 Barrett Drive in Troy, which has done business under the American Beauty Tools name since 2008.

The brand's history traces the name to the early 1900s, when a customer called his new soldering iron "a true American Beauty."

Irons for heavy work

The range runs from pencil-style irons to 300 and 550 watt irons that roofers use on copper sheet. The company also builds solder pots and resistance soldering systems, and lists stained glass, refrigeration, model railroads and sheet metal among the jobs its tools do.

American Beauty does not describe any of its tools as imported. Tips and other consumable parts are excluded from its warranty, so budget for replacement tips on an iron that gets daily use.
