For over 30 years, Paladin Tools has served datacom, IT and broadcast professionals with trusted tools for wire and cable preparation, termination and testing.

Paladin Tools is a leader in tool development for datacom and broadcast professionals – some of our “industry firsts” are now standard industry-standard:

*The first crimp tool with interchangeable die sets – our 1300 Series
*The first cable mappers to test continuity of individual conductors – our Patch-Check™ and PC Cable-Check™ testers
*The first and only punchdown tool with a detachable light – the SurePunch® Pro
*The Double-110 punchdown blade – terminates conductors a pair at a time
*The patented combination RJ45 / Cable TV “F” hex-crimp die set for our CrimpALL® and 1300 Series crimp frames

In 2001 we expanded our product line with the introduction of our DataShark® brand – do-it-yourself (DIY) tools for home entertainment and home network cabling. Our tool expertise and best-in-class packaging make DataShark® the right choice for the retail channel.

In 2005 we launched PowerPlay™, the first and only multi-tools designed around the specific needs of electricians, datacomm & telecom installers. PowerPlay™ is fast becoming a staple with professional end-users who value quality, utility and the flexibility to tackle whatever comes up.

In December 2007, Greenlee Textron Inc. a recognized global leader in the professional tool category acquired Paladin Tools. Based in Rockford, IL Greenlee develops high-quality innovative products distinguished by customer-driven design and differentiated by supply chain excellence.
