Gedore tool online

Does your workshop have to "run with the clatter" day after day, year after year? If so, you should consider investing in products from tool specialist Gedore. And here we can be helpful. The shop contains almost 3000 quality tools and trolleys for this. But before you put the goodies in the basket, we offer a look behind the walls of the over 100-year-old family-owned company.

Tools in absolute German top class

In 2019, in German Remscheid, they were able to pay tribute to the traditions of tool manufacturing with no less than 100 candles in the cake. 16,000+ special tools and storage solutions have been created. Neither Gedore's workshop wagons nor the founder's grandson; Managing partner, Karen Dowidat, is not like that to push out of the premium sector's limelight.

Next to him is his son, Christian Dowidat, as a proud and upright board member of GEDORE Holding GmbH. Although he is not yet at the top of the cake as head of the company, he is making his mark in the business area BIG (business, innovation and (G)edore).

We take pride in passing on the good quality of the brothers Karl, Otto and Willis. Despite very little capital, in 1919 they managed to produce adjustable wrenches and other hand tools – the blood, sweat and tears it cost them has helped propel the company to its current global leadership position.

Early growing pains in the craft industry

As early as 1926, the framework of the forge became too cramped to keep up with demand, e.g. in automobile development, and the foundation was cast for the headquarters in Stursberger Höhe in Remscheid-Lüttringhausen, where GEDORE is still housed today. If possible, the 1960s boosted the construction apparatus, and this prompted Otto Dowidat to take a drastic step with the opening of the production facilities Ferramentas Gedore do Brasil and factory sites in both South Africa, England and Austria.

It was also during these years that the Dremometer – a torque wrench in aluminium – took the market by storm and blew the craftsmen completely away with recognition in 1980, when the key was made electronic. Such massive growing pains require not only more square meters, but also more hands, roughly 2,300, which GEDORE now employs in over 70 countries. They meet the great customer diversity through two product lines: GEDORE and GEDORE ed. – and the many competencies are also united under the brand OCHSENKOPF.

Unique union of robotic arms and traditional forging

Have you ever wondered how the tool you hold in your hands every day was created? It takes a blacksmith, heater and neder to process the red-hot material without necessarily having a shape to lean on and a good deal of experience to control the tonne-heavy hammers with precision. Despite good, old-fashioned craftsmanship, GEDORE employees do not go down the road of using high-tech robots. The forge work is the main artery of the company - in comes lots of rust, acid, heat and cold resistant steel rods, which then undergo a splitting process - and which before the meeting with hammer and die - are put into the 1250 degree hot push furnace.

The element – be it anything from wrenches, ratchets, pliers, triggers, hammer and axe heads – is either passed on for further processing in a transport container or deburred either in a cold or hot state in an eccentric press. Temperature and tool size are inextricably linked for optimal processing. When the preformed yet glowing key is ready, place it under a cutting plate and remove the burr with just one stroke. And we wonder if the smiths do not strive for precise dimensions to stay on good terms with the grinders.

The heart of the Gedore family beats every day to create products with the greatest possible ergonomics, mobility and that can handle individual tasks in industry, agricultural engineering, auto repair shop, energy, trade and retail, DIY and not least forestry. Whether it is traction, storage, bending, hammer or screw applications, only the best and strongest materials are used. They are processed with forward-thinking technologies, so you have your favorite tool available for many years to come.

Team spirit and professional tools from end to end

Among other things, the company remains at the top of the forge and development game with the help of Europe's largest hydraulic top pressure hammer and its own die production. They set standards that reach out and the DIN regulation through highly skilled labor for whom both mechanical processing, surface and heat treatment as well as calibration are commonplace.

GEDORE is particularly known for its torque tools, which range from 0.04 to 60,000 N-m. We dare guarantee that there are no loose screws to be found under the roof of the Torque division, whether you explore the string of torque screwdrivers or multipliers, test equipment, high-torque batteries - or swing past the shelves with pneumatic, electric or hydraulic screwdrivers. Their Dakks laboratories are always at your service in terms of connection and calibration.

Rigorous German tool design to delight any car enthusiast

If you think there is a lot of traffic on the Danish roads, think about how many commercial vehicles transport things every day criss-crossing the German autobahn. Since 1978, GEDORE, with its huge portfolio, has contributed to a well-oiled fleet - new market requirements or model changes, thanks to their more than 90 patents, do not create unnecessary traffic jams. The special tools pave the way for both efficiency and safety even in narrow installation rooms – and thus also create security when the auto mechanic puts the ring wrench and torx in place and heads home after a long day.

Workshop trolley, top key set and much more on bels.dk

If you collect the tools in a trolley, your working day will be more fun and time-saving. The tasks will often alternate and you do not have to walk a lot of unnecessary steps. At the same time, you protect everything from tops to ring fork wrenches by placing them in the drawers of the corresponding ES and CT modules, and can quickly get an overview by equipping the trolley with a back wall. If you add a beechwood inlay board to your 2004 or 2005 series, you have a solid, extra work and storage space, so even under large customer care, you and your colleagues will not fall over each other or lack elbow room. We equip you with all this and a lot of other Gedore tools at sharp net prices. Should a particular item happen to have crept into our categorization, don't hesitate to poke our support team.
