About Platinum Tech Tools
Platinum Tech is a professional-grade hand tool brand developed under the umbrella of ATD Tools, Inc., a company that has been supplying automotive service professionals across the United States and Canada for over 46 years. Where ATD Tools covers a broad range of automotive equipment, Platinum Tech focuses specifically on high-quality hand tools designed to meet the rigorous demands of working mechanics, technicians, and serious DIYers.
One of the brand's most recognized product lines is its Ratchet Wrenches. Platinum Tech ratcheting wrenches feature a patented Spherical Spline design that works on six different fastener types — spline, 6-point, 12-point, star, square, and even 50% rounded-off heads — making them uniquely versatile in real-world shop conditions. A 72-tooth ratcheting mechanism delivers strong torque output with a tight 5-degree swing arc, ideal for working in confined engine bays. Many models also include a 180-degree flex feature and extended reach for accessing hard-to-reach fasteners with ease.
Alongside its ratcheting lineup, Platinum Tech produces a well-regarded range of Torque Wrenches, including split-beam designs that offer repeatable, accurate torque application — a critical requirement for fasteners on brakes, wheels, cylinder heads, and suspension components. Whether tightening lug nuts or setting head bolts, having a reliable torque wrench in the toolbox is non-negotiable for professional results.
The brand's selection of standard Wrenches rounds out its core offering. From stubby combination wrenches for tight quarters to long-pattern and flare-nut styles for specialized tasks, Platinum Tech wrenches are crafted from chrome-plated chrome vanadium steel for durability and corrosion resistance. Their high-polish finish is both functional and a mark of professional-grade quality.
For drive-tool users, Platinum Tech also offers Socket Sets and Socket Extensions that pair seamlessly with their ratchet wrenches. These components are built to the same quality standards as the rest of the line, making it easy to build a cohesive, reliable toolset from a single trusted brand.
All Platinum Tech products are quality-control tested at the manufacturer and through independent labs to ensure they meet the performance and durability standards that professional mechanics require. Distributed through a network of over 30 warehouse locations across the U.S. and Canada, Platinum Tech tools are widely accessible to professionals and enthusiasts alike.
