Recently, we welcomed Shorter Griffin to Wright for a facility tour. During his visit, he shared a story from his time serving in the U.S. Army during the Cold War, one that perfectly illustrates how far a tool made in Barberton, Ohio, can travel.
At Wright, we strive to do everything under one roof—and that includes our heat treating process. By keeping heat treat operations in-house, we maintain complete control over one of the most critical steps in manufacturing durable, high-performance tools.
At Wright, every tool goes through a detailed manufacturing process, but it’s at the MaxiPress where our sockets truly begin to take shape.
To achieve the finish our customers expect, whether satin or full-polished, every tool goes through a meticulous preparation process that combines both science and craftsmanship.
Before there’s a wrench, socket or ratchet, there’s round stock, solid, American-made steel that forms the foundation of everything Wright crafts.
A quality wrench isn’t defined by a single feature. It’s the result of hundreds of decisions from material selection, engineering and people who care deeply about doing things the right way.
