PRECISION TOOLS MADE INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH EDITED

In the Aerospace industry, precision is everything. The high-stakes job of maintaining, repairing, and overhauling aerospace-related machinery, vehicles, and finished products leaves no room for error.

PROTO® sockets, ratchets, and wrenches are designed to make general maintenance and production line tasks safe, efficient, and comfortable—not to mention accurate. And with proper maintenance, our tools are as exacting as you are.

For years, PROTO has been dedicated to bringing the aerospace industry hand tools and storage solutions dedicated to quality, precision, and FOD prevention. From the Precision 90 Ratchets and Micrometer Torque Wrenches to Foamed Modular Sets, PROTO offers a wide range of products that meet AS specifications to help ensure maintenance efficiency, time-savings, and quality mechanics tools.​

Engineered to Strict Standards

Aerospace specifications (AS) are set in place by engineers and technical experts to help promote safety, quality, and effectiveness. That’s why PROTO tools are engineered and rigorously tested to meet these dimensional and plating requirements for the industrial user.

  • Over 1,500 tools meet strict aerospace specifications
  • Rigorous lab testing checks tool endurance, dimensional accuracy, and torque tolerance
