EspañolFREDERICK TRENT STANLEY
'Frederick Trent Stanley' (August 12, 1802- August 2, 1883) was an American industrialist.
He founded Stanley's Bolt Manufactory of New Britain, Connecticut in 1843 to manufacture door bolts and other hardware from wrought iron. In 1920 this company was merged with Stanley Rule and Level Company, founded by his cousin Henry Stanley in 1857, and the two firms became The Stanley Works.
Stanley is one of the world's most recognized brands of tools today, and they have produced millions of hand planes, saws, rulers, try squares, chisels, screwdrivers, and many other tools for consumer and industrial use. Their innovations include the Bailey hand plane, the Surform shaper, the PowerLock tape measure, and the box-cutter knife. The last is sometimes called a utility knife or in British English, a 'Stanley knife'.
Frederick Trent (Trenck) Stanley was served also the mayor of New Britain, Connecticut in 1870.
