Not every business can say they have affected our world in as many ways as Seekonk Manufacturing. Whether you realize it or not, Seekonk Manufacturing has changed your life. Seekonk makes tools that are used with orthopedics, plumbing, piano tuners, tractor-trailers, and sniper rifles. A quick look at just one of their tools exemplifies the company’s versatility. Their Preset “T” Slip Handle type tool, the BT-2, is used by Brownells to torque their rifles. Printing companies purchase the same tool to torque the blankets on their printing presses. For over 70 years, they have consistently made the finest precision tools available becoming a world renowned manufacturer.
While the wide reach of their products might conjure up a mental image of a big, corporate conglomerate, Seekonk is a family business. The company began 73 years ago in the small New England town of Seekonk, Massachusetts. Three generations later, the same family still runs Seekonk with a fourth generation already in place learning the business.
