Force Tools (tool brand)

[AJHD]

Does anyone own or otherwise have any experience with Force Tools?

https://forcetools.co.za

I've seen them in use on at least YT channels I watch. I also only found one mention of them on the forum. Both are from Australia.

Just curious if the tools are any good, and if they have availability in the United States.

Reliable industrial quality speaking of the tools. Just like the rest of the brands/ re-brands coming predominantly from Taiwan. Manufacturer site: www.force.com.tw

Don’t know about US availability. Here in Germany they are the odd one out, but available through multiple, mostly international suppliers/vendors.

Force Tools

Does anyone in the US sell the Force Tool brand? They make a combination wrench with a 75deg. offset box. I'd like to try to find some.

Tried to get in touch with them directly (TW), never replied to my inquiry. So there is that as well.

It is my understanding that “they” originally tried the tool truck/ service to your door approach in Australia. ( forcetools.com.au ) Careful, that site will certainly give you the ‘optimized for Netscape and Internet Explorer X.X’ vibe …

Kurtis (CEE) uses a lot of their tools, and it seems to work quite well for him. …

Kind regards,
Olli

They are still available at Trade Tools (https://www.tradetools.com/force). I've not used them much apart from the odd spanner here or there. Seemed fine at the time.

The only way I've ever heard of them is from the fact that tradetools sell them. Tradetools are almost exclusively in just one state of Australia (QLD). That old force website (http://forcetools.com.au/) seems to list places in other states but those websites are all gone or just as outdated. I haven't seen them sold by anyone else.

Weirdly tradetools stock whitworth force sockets. If I search one of the part numbers, not many places come up.

As mentioned above, general Taiwan spec. Nothing special, but probably won't let you down. I wouldn't go out of my way to hunt it down if I was in the USA or Europe.

What unique tool do they sell that you're looking for? Their website ***** thats all Ive found out.

The only thing I've ever been interested in from them is their whitworth sockets. They are the only way I can buy a whitworth socket on the shelf. It would be great if they did spanners.

There aren't many brands of whitworth socket left.

Nothing specific or unique. I was curious.

I haven't been through their catalog, mostly just what I've seen in various YT videos.
