MaxiPress: Where Our Sockets Come to Life

At Wright, every tool goes through a detailed manufacturing process, but it’s at the MaxiPress where our sockets truly begin to take shape.

At Wright, every tool goes through a detailed manufacturing process, but it’s at the MaxiPress where our sockets truly begin to take shape. Proudly manufactured in-house in Barberton, Ohio, our tools reflect our commitment to quality and American craftsmanship.

After initial preparation, round bar stock is fed into the MaxiPress that passes through an induction heater, bringing the material to the optimal temperature for forming. From there, the press shapes each socket with precision and consistency.

It’s also where the details that define Wright quality are built in. Our patented innovations, Wright Square and Wright Drive 2.0, are punched directly into the sockets during this process, ensuring superior performance on every job.

Efficiency meets craftsmanship here as well. Our MaxiPress produces a finished socket every five seconds. That speed, combined with our strict quality standards, allows us to deliver tools professionals can rely on day in and day out.

At Wright, it’s not just manufacturing, it’s a commitment to doing things the right way, from the very first press.
