Quality, Made in the U.S.A., and Inflation

It’s been a while since my last post, so I wanted to cover a few topics in this one.

Quality: We make high-quality products. Our PWLs are durable and to date, we haven’t received any for repair. Our TATKs are handcrafted and calibrated. We often receive requests from companies looking for higher quality tooling than they currently have.

Made in the USA: We’re a US company based out of Pittsburgh, PA. We make many of our own parts and the rest we buy from US companies, which also carry the Made in the USA label. The only notable exception is the micrometer heads for our PWLs, which we buy in the US, but which are made by Mitutoyo.

Inflation: If you’ve done business with us for a while, you know we’ve kept our prices the same for several years. We anticipate needing to raise our prices in the coming months as we replenish our inventory with parts that cost more due to inflation.
