The essential tools for a mechanical workshop

A good organization of a mechanical workshop must necessarily presuppose an excellent supply of tools

On the market we have various types of tools for workshops and sometimes, due to the large availability of tools and products with which you can deal, it is really difficult to choose. Many are wondering how to orient themselves so that the choice does not fall on low quality solutions. In fact, there may be the risk both of buying objects that then prove superfluous and of buying tools that break easily or that do not turn out to be of excellent workmanship. But what are they the tools that cannot be missing in a mechanical workshop? Here are some insights on this.

Some tools for the mechanical workshop and features

First of all, a mechanic’s workplace cannot be lacking keys for professional workshops. They must be high quality tools, which are able to withstand time and wear.

In addition to the keys there must also be pliers, tenaglie and then specific keys for example like the English ones or the compass ones, which are used to unscrew nuts and bolts. The measures of these tools can vary, in fact they range from very small ones, which are used to work in detail, up to very large ones, which are used to create larger structures. The tools can also be useful for body builders and electricians and in fact there are special tools that are also used in the specific electric field, such as removing the sheath from cables, cutting and joining.

As for the characteristics that these tools should have, let’s immediately say that professional tools for a workshop in general should always be equipped with rubber handles, which, as an insulating material, can protect against the danger of possible electric shocks. Furthermore, the rubber grip gives the possibility to perform an excellent grip which is essential to perform the necessary work to the best.

Vices, screwdrivers and hammers

As we have already mentioned, it is necessary to focus on quality tools, as well as a well-disposed organization of these tools, so that professionals, during their work, can immediately find the position of the tools, when they need it.

And among the tools that cannot be missing in a mechanical workshop are the clamps and the screwdriver. In particular the morse they are very important in a workshop. We can find on the market of various sizes and different sizes. They are very useful because they hold mechanical objects, so that the worker can work in a stable and safe position.

The screwdriver instead it performs the indispensable functions of unscrewing and screwing and, together with martelli, surely it should never be missing in a workshop. These tools are to be combined with screws of different types and nails of various sizes.

In a mechanical workshop, even i should never be missing hydraulic jacks. They are fundamental in the field of mechanics. In fact they give the possibility, through a lever, to lift very heavy weights. Hydraulic jacks operate according to an oleodynamic mechanism and allow loads to be lifted through the pressure of oil inside a tube.

It is good that all the tools that are used in a workshop are arranged within an adequate space and that they are easy to use in the hands of experts. At the same time they must be quality tools especially to offer safety during their use. The whole, combined with a good worktop, a drill, a welder, a bench grinder, a compressor and measuring instruments, it can make a real difference.
