About us

T-DRILL is a manufacturer of high-tech tube and pipe fabrication solutions. Our standard products consist of a wide range of machine tools that are used in many different industries, from automotive to shipbuilding. In addition to our wide product range, we have a strong emphasis on product development and after sales support. This development is backed up by an effective production system and many decades of experience.

T-DRILL has developed products for mechanical contractors and plumbers, for whom the original T-DRILL tee forming was invented. Today, we use the same principle with decades of continuous improvements to our product range. This means we are making fast applications even faster, automatic equipment even more intelligent, and reliable systems even more reliable.

All these efforts have resulted in larger, highly automatized tube fabrication machinery and more efficient and ergonomically designed portable machine tools. In short, the T-DRILL family of professionals helps their customers to increase their productivity by offering a long-lasting advantage and edge.

T-DRILL has its roots in Finland but the products are sold all over the world. In excess of 95 % our products are exported to more than 60 countries. T-DRILL is part of Leinolat Group and has three facilities; two in Finland and one in Atlanta, USA.
