Ken Tools

Ken-Tool is one of the world's most recognized manufacturers of tire service tools. While having their headquarters located in Akron, Ohio, Ken-Tool has been offering top-grade products and solutions to the automotive aftermarket and tire industries for almost a century now. The company saw many changes over all those years since it was founded by a tire changing expert John A. Kennedy, although its long-standing tag-line, "Wherever Tires Are Changed", has been true up until now.

Ken-Tool's reputation and brand name remain among some of the most reputable on the tire service market, and it is actually the passion of the leaders of the company to make sure that it will continue to be exactly the same in the years that lie ahead. While being housed in a 70,000 plus square foot production facility, Ken-Tool is one of the primary manufacturers offering hand-tool solutions, with their manufacturing expertise focused on up-setter, drop hammer, and press forgings.

The company manufactures Ken tire tools and safety components and systems for the auto, heavy duty, and commercial transportation markets. Since John A. Kennedy's first achievement, the innovative Pacific Rim Tool, the company has been considering its goal to be the creation of innovative Ken-Tool tire changers that will make it much easier and safer to change wheels and tires of all kinds and sizes. The brand's product line includes Ken-Tool tire iron products, 4-way lug wrenches, bead breaking hammers and wedges, shop vises, tire safety inflation cages, torque sticks, and specialty sockets.
