Hand Tools (Wrenches, Pliers, Screwdrivers, Cutters)
Hand tools from China are sourced mainly from Danyang in Jiangsu (drop-forged wrenches and pliers, chrome-vanadium steel) and Yongkang in Zhejiang (hammers, cutters and general hand tools). A buyer can expect OEM logo, blade finish, handle material and blister or hanging-card packing to be changed at low or no tooling cost on volumes above roughly 3,000 sets.
Industrial belt

Questions buyers ask
Can a Chinese hand-tool factory make my own brand with low tooling cost?
Yes on the common routes: laser or silk-print logo, handle colour and blister packing usually cost nothing above 1,000–3,000 pcs. Only a custom forged shape or a bespoke bi-material handle mould needs tooling, typically quoted per mould with the fee refunded after a cumulative order quantity.
Which steel should I specify for pliers and wrenches?
Specify 6150 chrome-vanadium for forged wrenches and 50BV30 spring steel for pliers jaws, and ask for the hardness split (body 42–46 HRC, jaw edge 50–56 HRC) in the purchase order. Cheaper carbon-steel tools pass a size check but fail early on jaw torque.
