Ripley Transistions Clauss® Brand to Miller®
All Clauss® tools will maintain part numbers after brand change to Miller®

Cromwell, CT – In 2004 Ripley acquired the fiber optic, electronics and telecommunication product lines of Clauss® brand tools. Since the popular Miller® brand of quality tools continues to serve the same markets, Ripley will be incorporating all Clauss® branded tools under the Miller® brand and eliminating any further use of the Clauss brand name. This is a brand change only and no tools will be removed from the product line.

By January 2007 the brand transition will be complete, affecting both the tools and all supporting materials. The No-Nik® sub-brand will continue in use, unchanged. For ordering purposes all part numbers and descriptions will also remain unchanged.
