About Eklind Tool Company
Eklind Tool Company has been a cornerstone of American tool manufacturing for over a century. Eklind was founded in 1923, and the company quickly built a reputation as a dedicated, precision-focused maker of professional-grade hand tools. Today, it stands as one of the most trusted names in the industry, with a singular focus that has allowed it to achieve genuine mastery in its craft.
What sets Eklind apart is not just longevity, but consistency of purpose. Rather than spreading thin across dozens of tool categories, Eklind has channeled more than a century of expertise into perfecting the hex key — and that focused dedication shows in every product that leaves their factory. Their manufacturing facility, a 110,000 square-foot operation in Franklin Park, Illinois, is where American craftsmanship meets modern precision engineering.
A Legacy of Innovation in Hex Keys
Eklind's product evolution tells the story of a company that never stops improving. In 1955, the company introduced its first Fold-up Hex Key Sets, pioneering a segment of the market that it still dominates today. Decades of refinement followed, including the introduction of the popular Ergo-Fold™ series in 1999 — fold-up hex and Torx® key sets featuring a two-material grip designed for strength, comfort, and safety. In 2006, Eklind further broadened its lineup by adding PSD™ precision screwdrivers.
The full Eklind product range now spans hex keys in virtually every configuration a professional or serious DIYer could need: L-Keys, T-Keys, screwdriver-style drivers, and fold-up sets — all available in hex, ball-hex, Torx®, and tamper-resistant tip styles, in both SAE inch and metric sizes.
Built to Professional Standards
Every Eklind hex key is crafted from 8650 chrome-nickel alloy steel, heat treated for maximum strength and finished to resist rust. This level of material quality is not accidental — it reflects the company's commitment to producing tools that stand up to the demands of mechanics, machinists, tradespeople, and serious home workshop enthusiasts alike. When a fastener needs to move and won't budge, having a tool made to exacting tolerances makes all the difference.
Being manufactured in the United States is more than a badge of honor for Eklind — it is a quality promise built into every step of the production process. From raw steel selection to final finishing, domestic manufacturing gives Eklind direct control over the consistency and precision that professionals depend on.
