The Tip is 'Labeling Tip 1' Know Your Labeling - For products Made in America, the greater the US content the more American jobs required to produce it. So whenever possible choose the product with the highest percentage of U.S.content. US content must be disclosedon Made in USA textiles, automobiles, wool, and fur products. There is no law requiringmost other products to be marked or labeled made in USA, or, have any otherdisclosure about their amount of U.S. content. Those manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content must comply with the FTC's Made in USA policy. Note: Imported products must have the country of origin on their label whileproducts partially Made in USA do not. For a product produced in the U.S. to be labeled made in USA, or claimed to beof domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be all or virtually all made in the U.S. This would mean that all significant parts and processing that go into the product are of U.S. origin. The product should contain no (or negligible) foreign content. Made in the USA products create the greatest number of American jobs for our country. This is because the labor to produce the product, and the raw materials that go into the product, are created with American labor. For most products, there is no law requiring made in America labels, or any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on the label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. The product without the country origin on its label has some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Wright Tool Wright Tool is a company making a difference in the tool industry because we do things differently here. It's what sets us apart from other tool manufacturers. Many of the unique design features developed by Wright Tool have been imitated by others and are now accepted as industry standards. But only Wright Tool has the patents and the engineering talent that helped revolutionize the way ratchets, sockets and wrenches are designed and made. DELIVERY Order fill rate of 98% We back up our distributor partners with a large factory stock and the fastest, most reliable shipment record in the industry?98% shipped complete in less than 36 hours. We can do this because we are a small company that is big enough to handle the job. Our smaller size enables us to move more quickly and give more personalized attention to every customer's order. Quick Delivery on Special Tools Special tools are our specialty. We can turn them quickly in small or large quantities. INNOVATIONS The Patented Wright Drive? 12-Pt. Design Not just a modification, but an entirely new tool design. The Wright Drive 12-point design distributes contact stress evenly over a larger contact area and away from the fastener corners. The result is ten times more socket-to-fastener contact area than conventional sockets. This design also increases leverage while decreasing rounding and distortion of fasteners. Patented #4,882,957. The Patented Wright Drive? 6-Pt. Design Ideal for impact sockets. Wright combines the benefits of our exclusive 12-point design (greater strength, more torque and reduced rounding of corners) with the better gripping action of a 6-point opening. The result is a better grip on undersized fasteners and fasteners with badly rounded corners. Patented #5,284,073. Wright Spline? The Wright Spline is the next step beyond Wright Drive. Wright Spline is the highest strength wrench for high strength fasteners and is good for ordinary hex and 12-pt. fasteners too. WRIGHTGrip? WRIGHTGrip?the innovative design on our open-end combination wrenches?delivers more torque while increasing tool life and strength. MANUFACTURING/ ENGINEERING Engineering Innovations and Improvements Wright engineers are continually improving existing tool designs and introducing innovative new tools. We use state-of-the-art CAD/CAM technologies to lead the way in our industry. Even our computer programs are written in-house. Hot-Forge Process Wright Tool uses four different hot-forging processes. All tools are forged using tough 4140 alloy steel. Hot-forging gives our products excellent grain flow for higher toughness, longer wear and better reliability than cold-formed tools. Higher Strength Our design, engineering, hot-forging and choice of steel give our tools greater strength in close quarters. Value-Added Secondary Operations From tool-making to heat-treating to plating, Wright offers one-source control to assure the highest possible quality. Made Entirely in the U.S.A. From the design and engineering to the forging and finishing, all work on Wright tools is performed in the United States by skilled American workers. We do not use foreign blanks or forgings. Even the steel we use is American-made. PRODUCTS Wider Variety of Products Wright offers a complete line of superior-quality hand tools including ratchets, sockets, wrenches, and attachments for the industrial, contractor, and MRO markets. Unique Ratchet Features Higher strength through superior design Greater toughness Works in close quarters Double-pawl design for more reliability and fine action with large teeth Balls instead of plungers for longer wear Contour, nitrile, ergonomic grips for easier use with less fatigue Easy cleaning without losing parts Double-Pawl Design on 3/8 and 1/2 Ratchets Our ratchets have twice the number of positions with no increase in the number of teeth. The greater strength and smoother ratcheting action works better in tight places. Double-pawl ratchets retain all of the long-wearing characteristics of the single-pawl design. Precision manufacturing provides greater strength and longer life. Special Small Ratchets Wright manufactures small-sized ratchets for specialized applications such as hard-to-reach spots. Heavy-Duty Sockets Designed for heavy-use, long-term service, Wright sockets are second to none. Superior-Quality Wrenches Outstanding in design, quality, and selection. Available in either full polish or satin finish. Tools for High-Strength Bolting Wright offers a full line of bolting tools, including torque wrenches, stronger sockets and ratchets, and sturdy combination wrenches. |
