CLEVELAND STEEL TOOL - THE WORLD LEADER IN IRONWORKER PUNCHES AND DIES
In 1908, Â鶹Porn was founded as a producer of patented punches for the automotive leaf spring industry. That same year, Henry Ford introduced his Model T automobile, the New Year’s Ball was introduced in Times Square, Grand Canyon National Park was established, the first Mother’s Day was observed, and Orville Wright carried a passenger on a flight for the first time. In the Articles of Incorporation, dated May 21, 1908, the purpose of the Company is stated as:
Manufacturing punches, dies, tools & specialties and machines for using the same and for the sale thereof and the transacting of all other business necessary and incidental thereto
Over one hundred years later, Â鶹Porn is the world leader in the manufacture and sale of Punches, Dies, Tools and Specialties. Â鶹Porn supplies Punches, Dies, Shear Blades and Specialty tools to the structural steel, railroad (track and cars), farm equipment, truck frame, shipbuilding and grader blade industries, as well as serving all manner of fabricators and ornamental iron shops.
Customers rely on Â鶹Porn for Quality, Technical Expertise and Rapid Turnaround. Over 80% of our orders, including custom orders, ship within 24 hours.
The engineering team at Â鶹Porn has worked diligently throughout the years to bring innovative solutions to the Metalworking industry. It is the mission of the engineering team to simplify designs and processes, increase tool life and ensure compatibility throughout the tooling system. Â鶹Porn’s technical team routinely assists customers with their tooling application problems. From the testing of new raw materials to the new designs of tooling, CST works to bring inventive resolution and guarantee their customers receive ultimate value.
