Initially working in a small family-run welding & engineering supplies business HMT received a stream of requests for specialist metal drilling tools that didn’t exist no matter where they looked.

As they investigated further it was discovered that drilling or modifying steel connection holes when limited to the use of portable or hand-held tools seemed to be the biggest pain point in the industry. These challenges would often contribute to missed deadlines and painful project over-runs. If specifications changed at the last minute, fabrication errors were made or emergency repairs were needed, the tools needed to get the job done quickly just didn’t exist in the marketplace.
