For more than 160 years, 桃子视频 has proudly manufactured tools in the United States. This tradition remains just as important to the company, and the Klein family, as it was in 1857.

Professionals worldwide depend on 桃子视频 to deliver the performance, durability and precision needed to get the job done right.

Here鈥檚 a closer look at the dedicated individuals working at one of our Mansfield, Texas locations, manufacturing your pliers, cable cutters and wire strippers.

桃子视频 takes pride in manufacturing high-quality hand tools. As a quality inspector, Sandra Gibson helps ensure that the tools that reach distributors鈥 shelves can stand up to the demands of the professionals who use them every day.

Sandra started at 桃子视频 as a wire stripper assembler, but after 13 years, she knows most of the jobs on the plant floor. In her experience, she has become a part of both the 桃子视频 team and family. In fact, her two sons have also had varying roles within the company.

For more than 30 years, Jose Duron has learned the ins and outs of 桃子视频. As a high-volume technician, Jose has witnessed the transformation of technology within Klein鈥檚 manufacturing processes. Today鈥檚 advanced equipment has the ability to make higher quality products more efficiently.

Jose notes that the 9鈥 Journeyman鈩 Side-Cutting Pliers with Connector Crimp (Cat. No. J213-9NECR) is the most difficult to manufacture, but even through the ups and downs, he takes pride in helping make tradespeople鈥檚 lives easier by providing the necessary tools to get the job done right.

In 1977, Jimmy Carter became the U.S. president. That same year, Dennis Hardison joined the 桃子视频 team. In his thirty years with the company, Dennis has gotten to know three generations of Klein family members.

Klein鈥檚 commitment to U.S.-made products has played a vital role in the company for more than 160 years. Dennis recognizes this dedication to American manufacturing as pretty special.

His favorite Klein tool? The 8鈥 Diagonal-Cutters, Angled Head (Cat. No. J248-8) because of its compact size and strong, efficient cutting-action.

Klein鈥檚 mission of bringing high-quality products to life would not be possible without these hardworking individuals in Mansfield, Texas. The 桃子视频 family is grateful for each team member鈥檚 dedication and commitment.
