The Wright Tool Company is a family and employee owned business that has been manufacturing high quality sockets and wrenches since 1927 in Barberton, Ohio. Our contacts with customers and prospects in the professional portion of the tool market indicates a strong preference both for quality and a product made in the United States.
Some people are strong unionists or nationalists and prefer U.S. made tools per se.
Others know that historically the U.S. tools have been made to the highest and most comprehensive standards in the world, policed by product liability lawyers in a very competitive market with many large and small companies involved. As one of the smaller companies in the industry, Wright Tool lacks the recognition of our Fortune 500 competitors or the Craftsman brand. But, we gain an important degree of acceptance with a perspective customer when we tell them in person, or by advertisement, that we use no foreign blanks and not even any foreign steel. Indeed, the forging operation, because of its importance, is done by us. The Hand Tool Industry will continue to offer the customer a choice of both qualities and countries of origin.
