Celebrate Independence Day with Tools & Fasteners Made in the USA!
As we celebrate our nation's independence this Fourth of July, it's the perfect time to support brands and products that come directly from the hands of American workers. The National Association of Manufacturers recently predicted an exciting trend — an increasing number of companies are reshoring their production to the United States.

In honor of this resurgence and in the spirit of Independence Day, we're highlighting several Nail Gun Depot partnering brands that are keeping American manufacturing robust and Made in the USA.
But what does it mean when we say a product is 'Made in the USA'? Well, it signifies that the final assembly or processing of the product occurs right here in the United States. This doesn't just mean the product is packaged or labeled here, but that it undergoes significant processing on American soil. Furthermore, when we talk about 0American-made products, we're often referring to items where all, or the vast majority, of the components are also made and sourced in the US. In essence, 'Made in the USA' represents a commitment to American labor, American parts, and American innovation.
Paslode: A Pioneer in American Manufacturing
Let's begin with Paslode, a pioneer in the realm of pneumatic fastening tools and nailers. The majority of Paslode products are produced right here in the USA, demonstrating a firm commitment to domestic manufacturing. With four manufacturing plants across the country, Paslode's tools are not just a part of American tool chests, they're also a significant contributor to the strength of American industry.
DeWalt: Crafted with Pride in the USA
DeWalt, one of the most iconic names in the tool industry, proudly displays the "Made in the USA with Global Materials” stamp on many of their products.

RolAir: High-Quality Compressors, Assembled in America
