Reed Manufacturing

For over 130 years, Reed Manufacturing has been setting the standard for professional-grade pipe tools and vises. Founded in 1896 and acquired in 1902 by Reuben Wright, REED remains proudly family-owned and operated by the fifth generation of the Wright family. From day one, REED Associates have pioneered innovations that became industry benchmarks—such as the Quick Release™ Tubing Cutter, specialized tools for plastic pipe, rugged vises, and Hinged and Rotary pipe cutters for large-diameter pipe. Each year, REED introduces new tools while continuously refining existing ones based on feedback from the professionals who use them. REED’s main tool categories are: Cutters & Cutter Wheels; Plastic Pipe Tools; Water Services Tools; Threaders & Dies; Test Pumps & Groovers; Vises; Wrenches & Sockets; and General Pipe Working Tools. Every REED tool is engineered for durability, precision, and performance—built to meet the demands of the professional trades.
