Mechanics and auto technicians need precision tools to get their work done. Trades need tools that suit the job and last the distance. Plenty of hand tools look the part and promise heaps, but buyer beware!

 

They often:

  • Wear out quickly or break under pressure.
  • Are the wrong size or type for the task.
  • Get lost too easily in the workshop.
  • Are likely to slip, increasing risk of user injury.
  • Are hard to manoeuvre in tight, confined spaces.
  • Have poor grip on worn fasteners, nuts and bolts.

They may let you down, exactly when you need them most.

 

Explore high-quality solutions from Sidchrome

Sidchrome is a heritage brand supplying quality hand tools and storage solutions to Australian workers for more than 80 years.

 

The tool and storage solutions include:

  • Robust, comprehensive multi-tool kits and boxes.
  • Fastening, cutting, striking, measuring multi-tools.
  • Chests, roller trollies and cabinets for workshops.
  • Digital torque wrenches and adaptors for precision work.

 

With the right tool for every job challenge – working in close spaces, finding loose tools or losing your grip – performance gets a boost.

 

What’s so special about a Sidchrome tool?

  • Real tool count: The only tools that go into a kit are professional quality tools, no piece-count boosters.
  • Antislip fastening system: Increase spanner grip on nuts with the patented groove-lock design.
  • Torqueplus fastening system: Move worn nuts and bolts more easily in confined spaces.
  • Ringstop gothru system: Prevent the spanner slipping past the fastener when access is limited.
  • Eva foam system: See immediately if a tool is missing from box via the red screen print outline.

Sidchrome tools in the workplace

Sidchrome tools are designed for a lifetime of productive use in workshops and on construction sites.

  • Mechanics - stay organised and locate lost tools with EVA foam cutouts for each tool in the box. Choose a kit with every type and size of hand tool. Move your cart easily from car to car. Have individual kits, or one or two large kits to share across the workshop.
  • Auto technicians - handle the finer details with ease. Torqueplus fastening gives you extra dexterity in tight spaces, where you have less leverage to push up. Ringstop helps you work more efficiently with limited access.
  • Trades - enjoy top quality, user-friendly hand tools. Buy a single, fully rounded tool chest with genuine tool count and antislip fastening. Replace loose tools, of different brands, with one seamless kit - especially important for apprentices just starting their working life.
  • DIY enthusiasts - Buy a whole Sidchrome set for long life! Replace individual tools as required. Hobby car devotee or home renovator, find exactly the right tool on hand when you need it.

 

“When you buy Sidchrome, you buy a market-leading tool with a focus on quality, legacy and smart design,” says Sidchrome Brand Assistant Caroline Brown.
