Since 1886, Channellock, Inc. has manufactured high-quality pliers on American soil. We're proud to employ more than 350 dedicated associates who work hard every day to manufacture more than 75 different sizes and types of pliers in Meadville, Pennsylvania. Every detail commands attention so every pair of pliers we put our name on doesn’t just finish the job, but defeats it — plain and simple. It’s not the easiest way but it’s the CHANNELLOCK® way, Meadville way, and American way. Hard work is in our genes, check out the CHANNELLOCK® story below — from 1886 to now.
