About TEMPO-Werkzeug
TEMPO-Werkzeug-Company Heier GmbH & Co. KG is a family business founded in 1958 by Max Heier in Remscheid and today run in its third generation. The focus lies on the procurement and manufacture of high-quality hand tools, in particular single open-end wrenches to DIN 894 (5 to 135 mm), double open-end wrenches to DIN 895 (5.5x7 to 75x80 mm), pipe wrench sockets to DIN 896, three-corner wrenches and pins to DIN 900. In addition, the company develops and manufactures custom tools and procures special tools via qualified partner companies. Production includes forging from special tool steel, hardening to 120 kg/mm², precise grinding of the jaw surfaces as well as surface treatments such as chrome plating, nickel plating, phosphating and zinc plating. The tools are used worldwide, among other things in the automotive industry, mechanical engineering, shipbuilding, construction, mining, agriculture, the oil and offshore industry and in railways. At the headquarters in Remscheid, around 1,500 m² of warehouse space is available for short delivery times and high delivery capability.
