Dear Ms. Ravitz:
On behalf of Fortive Corporation (the Company), I acknowledge that:
| | the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; |
| | staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) from taking any action with respect to the filing; and |
| | the Company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States. |
Very truly yours,
/s/ James A. Lico
President and Chief Executive Officer
