We Don't Represent Everyone. We Represent You.
We Focus on What Makes You Money — and Prove It.
Skilled at the Spindle. Speed in the Office. Our Best Every Time.
The right tool at the right price, with the expertise to drive your cost per unit down and save you where it matters.
We spec the right fluid for your machine, your material, and your budget.
Complex problem at the spindle? We spec, build, and deliver custom tooling that gets results.
We stock it. We monitor it. You make parts.
Our Digital ToolCrib and vending systems handle your tool room so your team never has to stop and search.
The right workholding keeps your parts secure and your process dialed in.
If you’re concerned about downtime on an unproven tool. We can run it on our spindle first — so you know exactly what you’re getting before it hits your floor.
At Lloyd Gage, our loyalty is to your shop floor — not corporate agendas, commissions, or kickbacks. We carry what's right for your operation, and we show up to prove it.
Real partnerships don't happen overnight. Many of our customers have been with us since the '60s because we treat every job as an investment in the next one. For us, the goal was never the sale — it's the relationship.
With no contracts and quick installation — getting started is fast and easy — and staying stocked is even easier. Our dedicated team monitors your inventory so you never run out of the tools keeping your machines running, and with streamlined ordering built right into the system, your purchasing team reclaims hours every week.
Big distributors have rules. We have solutions. As a small business, we're free to adapt, improvise, and say yes when others can't. Tight deadline? Complex project? We don't escalate it — we solve it.
With LGT, what you see is what you get. Our prices stay consistent — and if a manufacturer raises theirs, we'll notify you immediately. While competitors quietly profit off tariffs, we build a separate line item showing you the exact tariff cost. No markups. No surprises. Just straight talk.
The people behind the phones are what set us apart. Our inside team brings competence and experience, asks the right questions, and turns around quotes in under an hour.
You boys sure aren’t built like most other distributor sales who won’t know how to read a drawing. Thanks for your attention to detail!
It’s not what tool you use it’s how the tool is applied. LGT recommended different speeds and feeds and we got 5 times the productivity than what the catalog house suggested. This saved us hours of machine time and thousands of dollars.
I have been doing tooling since 1992… NEVER have I delt with a better company!!!
Thank you
Form tools made it easier to cut complex features while maintaining accuracy and repeatability. The fact that we are still using the same tool after hundreds of pieces with little wear attests to the tool’s long lifetime! Pat at Lloyd Gage sent us a quote and print in less than a day, and we appreciate the unparalleled service and assistance from Core Cutter and Lloyd Gage.
We got a quote within a business day and took delivery of the tools within 2 weeks. Core & Lloyd Gage really saved us on this one with top-notch customer service and a quality tool that cut down on 2-3 tools being needed.
Lloyd Gage & Core Cutter came up with a .177” wide 3 flute endmill with a stub flute and an oversized 1⁄4” shank. This tool lasted 10 to 1 from our previous option. This saved time and money by helping us avoid scrapping parts, and changing tools frequently.
Making the keyseat cutter to the exact width we needed while making a spacious 3 flute design solved all of our issues. We even had the tool designed to be able to spotface another feature in the part. Not only did it solved the issues we had but these tools have lasted years for us due to the ideal geometry for aluminum.
I recently made the decision to leave PTS, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice to partner with LGT. The issues I faced with PTS—incorrect shipments, long lead times to get quotes, inconsistent tools, and a lack of technical help—made operations frustrating and inefficient. But with LGT, it’s a completely different experience. Not only do they deliver exceptional customer service and provide real value-added support, but they even go above and beyond by delivering our coolant at no charge. LGT has truly transformed the way we do business, and I’m grateful for their dedication and reliability.
We used to depend on three or four distributors for our tooling needs. That all changed when we teamed up with Lloyd Gage & Tool. They’re faster, more reliable, and hands-on—and they beat everyone on price. Their team gave us smart tooling recommendations that cut costs and boosted production. Plus, we absolutely love working with Andrew on the inside—he’s a game-changer who makes everything click. We moved all our business to them, making them our one-stop shop. Now, our shop’s running leaner and stronger than ever.
We always said at North Coast Tool & Mold: ‘It all starts with tooling.’ Working with Lloyd Gage & Tool proves that 100%. You’re the best tooling company I’ve worked with in 30+ years. The Nachi flat-bottom drill exceeded expectations—a 6mm drill at 3,800 RPM and 11 IPM, 1.575” deep without a peck! That’s a game-changing tooling recommendation from your team.
Before LGT, I spent too much time checking stock levels and placing orders—taking me away from what I do best: running machines, making parts, and maximizing efficiency. Now, I can focus on production while LGT ensures my inventory is always ready.
I’ve worked with Pat for a decade and have never had a stockout. That reliability allows me to consistently hit my $10 million monthly quota with Boeing.
