About us
RIDGID's Proud History is Built on the Trust of the Trades
Since the day we invented the modern pipe wrench, we’ve made it our mission to build for the world's expert tradespeople – those who know the limits of the job and how to exceed them.
These tools operate in extremes of heat and cold, withstand dirt and mud, and perform reliably day in and day out. RIDGID tools are known the world over as industry-leading products that allow professionals like you to complete jobs more quickly and reliably.
Some of our customers tell us stories of the things they built, while others tell the stories of the men and women who came before them. Our tools are handed down from Father to Son and from Grandfathers to Granddaughters. We love that, and we honor the strength and spirit of those past, present and future who proudly choose RIDGID.
