About Stahlwille
Stahlwille Eduard Wille GmbH & Co. KG was founded in 1862 in Wuppertal, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The company has made precision hand tools throughout its history and is recognised as one of the leading German professional hand tool manufacturers, sitting in the premium segment alongside Snap-on, Wera and Wiha.
Stahlwille’s torque wrench range is among the most technically respected on the professional market. The MANOSKOP series of click-type torque wrenches is manufactured to BS EN ISO 6789 Type II Class A (±4% accuracy) and Type II Class B (±3%) and is widely specified in the automotive, aerospace and rail sectors, where torque tool accuracy is set out formally in work instructions and quality management procedures. Stahlwille runs a UKAS-accredited calibration laboratory and supplies calibration certificates traceable to national standards.
The wider hand tool range, including combination spanners, open-end wrenches, socket sets and ratchets, is built to the same philosophy as the torque tools: precise dimensional tolerances, high-quality chrome vanadium steel, correct heat treatment, and surface finishes that resist corrosion and stay easy to keep clean in demanding workshop and site environments. For professionals who choose tools on quality rather than price, Stahlwille is consistently on the shortlist.
Products We Can Supply from Stahlwille
MANOSKOP torque wrenches. The Stahlwille MANOSKOP 730 series click-type torque wrenches in 1/4″, 3/8″, 1/2″ and 3/4″ drive, covering torque ranges from 1–6 Nm (1/4″ drive) to 100–500 Nm (3/4″ drive), manufactured and calibrated to BS EN ISO 6789 with an individual calibration certificate. We can also supply the MANOSKOP 714 and 730R ratchet-head torque wrenches with a built-in ratchet for jobs where a separate ratchet and extension combination is impractical.
Combination spanners and open-end wrenches. Stahlwille combination spanners in metric sizes from 6 mm to 46 mm and AF, in the standard 13 series with a 15° offset ring and the 14 series with a 75° offset for confined access. We also supply open-end wrenches, box spanners and flare nut wrenches across the full professional range. All are made from chrome vanadium steel to DIN 3113 with the dimensional precision and surface finish you expect from premium German hand tools.
Socket sets and ratchets. Stahlwille socket sets in 1/4″, 3/8″ and 1/2″ drive in 6-point and 12-point configurations covering the metric and AF hex range; the RATCHET series with Stahlwille’s 72-tooth fine-tooth mechanism; and socket sets in tool module (foam insert) format for workshop organisation and FOD (foreign object debris) control in aerospace and precision manufacturing environments.
Screwdrivers and pliers. Stahlwille screwdrivers in slotted, Phillips, Pozidriv and Torx configurations with the DRALL handle, a distinctive ergonomic handle with a front zone for high-torque work and a rear zone for fine adjustment, plus Stahlwille pliers in combination, long-nose and diagonal cutting formats. VDE-insulated versions are available for electrical work.

Good to Know
Stahlwille MANOSKOP torque wrenches can be supplied with UKAS-traceable calibration certificates straight from the factory, which is a requirement for aerospace and defence MRO, ISO 9001 quality management systems and any application where torque tool calibration traceability is written into work instructions or quality procedures. Annual recalibration is recommended. Get in touch for Stahlwille wrenches with current certificates or for recalibration services.
