M.A. Ford is the world's premier manufacturer of high performance cutting tools. That is as true today as it was back in 1919 when Matthew A. Ford produced the first hand cut, HSS rotary files made in America.

Whether it's engineering the exacting tolerances of miniature drills or developing the intricate geometries for application specific high performance cutting tools, its commitment to innovation, quality and professional service, quite frankly, put M.A. Ford a cut above the rest.

M.A. Ford has two of the world's most modern Solid Carbide and HSS Cutting Tool manufacturing facilities. Located in Davenport, Iowa and Vero Beach, Florida, both plants employ a team concept that strives for improved response times, the highest quality tools, innovative ideas, cost reduction and control. M.A. Ford is ISO 9001 certified.

M.A. Ford's products are coated by Miracle Tools America, which is M. A. Ford's subsidiary established with Mitsubishi Carbide and MMC Kobelco Tool. MMC Kobelco Tool licenses the PVD technology to Miracle Tools America.
