It is. They started as, I believe, a pipe cutting, and threading brand. Then when Stanley (another well known high quality brand) was sold off to a Chinese company for the name, ridgid bought their power tool line, and husky (Home Depot’s store brand) bought their hand tool line. Both are very high quality brands, sadly they are both only available through Home Depot.

Sold as AEG power tools in Europe (and maybe elsewhere), manufactured by TTI who also makes Ryobi and Milwaukee.
