    Reed Manufacturing Company, a developer of manufactured piping solutions, is the latest company to join the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors—National Association’s (PHCC) Partners for Professionalism program.
    “We are very pleased that this reputable company has joined the program,” says PHCC Partners for Professionalism Chair Jim Stack. “They have a long history of supporting our association and professionalism throughout the industry, and they share our commitment to maintaining the traditional supply chain. This partnership also brings a new element of high-quality specialty tools to our growing line of co-branded products.”
    For more than 111 years, Reed has invented tools, including the Quick Release tubing cutter, various tools for plastic pipe, vises, plus hinged and rotary cutters for large diameter pipe. In addition to new tools, each year Reed makes end-user driven improvements and refinements to existing tools, all of which come with a full lifetime warranty.
    Scott Wright, Reed’s president of sales and finance, notes that the timing is perfect for the company to enhance its relationship with PHCC.
    “This year Reed is developing new tools to add to the breadth and depth of the company’s tool line,” he says. “What better partnership could there be than to align our new products with such a professional group of plumbing, heating and cooling contractors?”
    Reed’s new product additions include 5301PD Power Drive, RG6HDCOMBO Roll Groover, redesigned Tapping and Drilling Machines, two-pack cutter wheels and improvements to long-standing Reed tools.
