History
Our partnership with the mining industry dates back to over a century ago. Since 1912 Gray tools
have been used by professionals who perform extraordinary work to create positive change.
Below are some highlights from our rich history, as written so far:
1912
1912 is a special year in the history of Gray Tools.
Alex Gray and two of his brothers established Gray
Tools Manufacturing & Machine Company Limited
as a “Manufacturer of steam and power pumps and
special machinery”.
1922
The first hand-tool catalogue was printed. The catalogue
listed 302 different hand tools including sockets,
wrenches, handles, extension bars, universal joints, and
associated parts. In addition, many wrench sets were
produced specifically for certain cars made at that time.
1940’s
After ten years of decline and misery, Canada was
pulled out of the Great Depression in 1939 by the
Second World War.
Hundreds of Canadian factories devoted their energy and
resources to supplying the Allies with massive quantities
of war material, and Gray-Bonney did the same.
1980’s
An effective way to differentiate Gray tools from
competitors was by providing excellent customer
service, particularly by having the owner of the company
personally visit as many distributors as possible. Over
the course of several decades. Alex journeyed all across
Canada for at least two months of each year, visiting
distributors in many cities, towns, and villages. Often, he
found he was speaking to individuals who had met his
grandfather and father in earlier years.
1990’s
As the demand for tool storage solutions increased
Gray launched the PRO, GT and XL series of “Made In
Canada” toolboxes. For the mechanic who needed to
store many pounds of tools as well as hard hats, safety
glasses, and other work-related objects, a larger and
more substantial box was especially useful.
2000
Gray Tools is the only company that manufactures a
broad line of hand tools in Canada.
The business standards of integrity and quality, the
emphasis on customer service, and the respect for
Canadian heritage have persisted unchanged for a
hundred years.
Strengthened by these values, the company looks
forward to its second century in business. At Gray Tools,
the story goes on.
Custom Tool Capabilities
Safety and productivity are critical in the mining industry. Using the correct tool for the application
can make the difference between costly downtime and running an efficient operation.
But what if that right tool doesn’t exist and has to be designed? Instead of improvising, we

In addition to in-stock specialty tools throughout our history, we’ve manufactured countless
custom tools for essential service providers such as Bell Canada, Ontario Hydro, Toronto
Transit Commission, General Electric, and others.
