About


Reed Manufacturing Company has been producing fine tools for worldwide professional trades since its founding in 1896. Reed Manufacturing is family-owned and operated by the fifth generation of Wrights. Reed produces quality pipe tools and vises. Reed has developed many of the most innovative and effective tools in the industry. Sold worldwide exclusively through local distributors, Reed tools are the first choice of professionals around the world!
Reed celebrated its 121st year of business in 2017. From the company's beginning, Reed associates have invented tools that continually become industry standards, including the Quick Release™ Tubing Cutter, various tools for plastic pipe, vises, plus Hinged Cutters™ and Rotary™ cutters for large diameter pipe.
In addition to new tools, each year Reed makes end-user driven improvements and refinements to existing tools. The "Best Ever" designation is given to a tool whose quality, benefits, or performance has been significantly improved over all previous versions. These continuous improvements are advantages to buying Reed. Recent additions include the Cordless Power Pipe Beveler, Clean Ream Plus™ Plastic Pipe Fitting Reamers and performance improvements to the Saw It® Pneumatic Saw. Nearly every Reed tool is the best of its kind in the world, and each offers a Lifetime Warranty.
