Malco Products, SBC, one of the nation’s leading manufacturers of high-quality American-made hand tools, today announced the launch of Eagle Grip, its newest line of professional-grade locking tools.

The introduction of our new Eagle Grip line of locking tools is an excellent example of our dedication to craftsmanship and building American-made tools you can count on.”
