The tool was designed by and named after FDNY First Deputy Chief Hugh Halligan in 1948. Later that year, the first prototype of the Halligan bar was made by blacksmith Peter Clarke. Because the device had been invented by one of its members, the FDNY did not initially purchase the tool in order to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest.

The Boston Fire Department was the first major customer of the Halligan bar, purchasing one for every fire company in the city. The tool was popular enough that members of New York ladder companies began buying it with their own money until the department ultimately decided to purchase the tool, gradually leading to widespread adoption across North America and eventually worldwide.

Weather resistant and excellent on water bottles, laptops, cars, helmets, etc...

I got these for a co-worker who's also a volunteer firefighter, to put on his hardhat at work. He was thoroughly impressed with them. They're the perfect size and it helps that they're waterproof, since we're hydro-blasters. Really cool items!
