Hand tools are among the most essential and widely used categories of equipment in various industries, workshops, and household applications. This group includes wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, hammers, hand saws, and measuring tools.

The production of hand tools requires precision in ergonomic design, the use of durable steels, and processes such as forging, heat treatment, and anti-corrosion coating to ensure strength, longevity, and user safety.

The domestic market for hand tools in Iran is highly active. Due to consistent demand across industries, workshops, and homes, this sector offers good profitability. Local manufacturing also helps reduce dependency on imports.

Iranian hand tools are exported to neighboring countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, Armenia, and Central Asian nations. Competitive pricing, acceptable quality, and geographical proximity contribute to the success of exports.

Regarding competitive advantages, Iran benefits from skilled labor, access to raw metallic materials, flexible and diverse production capabilities, and the presence of well-known domestic brands. These factors enable it to compete with some imported products and strengthen its position in regional markets.
