Historic Narrative

Ullman Devices Corp. was established in 1935. Quoted from Ullman Devices Corp website: In the middle of the depression, Robert Ullman invented the first inspection mirror, while taking a tour of an aircraft plant. He got the idea from watching a mechanic using a crude mirror to look into the inner part of the engine and the rest is history. Over the years, we have broadened our line to include magnetic pick-up tools, flexible spring claws, screw starters, rotating magnetic work lights, carbide scribers, hooks, picks, socket holders and various other specialty tools.
