“CUTTING TOOL INNOVATION SPEED UP METALWORKING”
Holemaker Technology
HoleMaker Technology (HMT)
manufacture and distribute cutting
tools for improved metal working and
fabrication. The revolutionary HMT
product range is creating a buzz in the
market with innovative design plus
endurance and speed advantages over
traditional methods.HMT was founded
in late 2013 by brothers, Piers, and
Hugh Crane and now has a network of
over 100 resellers in the UK and Europe.
Director Piers Crane said...
“My brother and I have been involved
in the metalworking and industrial
supply marketplace for a combined
18 years, and we kept being asked for
products that simply were not available.
Overwhelmingly, these requests were
about making or modifying the holes that
connect metal components together.
Following intensive market research, we
launched HMT dedicated to this area,
with the vision to be the leading brand of
fabricators cutting tools”.

“Agencies like Growthaccelerator and MAS
(Manufacturing Advisory Service) have
really helped us in practical areas like CAD
tool design as well as grant funding for the
R&D projects.”
In addition to the new Versadrive products,
the HMT product range also has three
main pillars which are Fabrication Reamers,
CarbideMax TCT Broaching Cutters, and
Impact Tapping products.
Latest HMT products include the
groundbreaking VersaDrive Cutting
tool range optimised for use with both
portable site tools as well as workshop
equipment. Versadrive tools are specially
hardened and coated to give up to 6X the
working life of traditional cutting tools
and are designed to work with the linear
torque of a standard impact wrench, as
well as rotary power tools.
Business Development Manager Hugh
Crane explains – “the great thing about the
Versadrive cutting tools is, the guy on site
or in the workshop, can use this product in
any drill with a chuck, or quickly slot it into
an impact wrench, magnet drill, or pillar
drill when the job changes.”
This gives increased safety as well as
speed, resulting in better value for the
customer. For dealers, the Versadrive
system allows them to sell one stock item
for multiple applications, allowing a lower
overall stockholding.
For example, the Versadrive ImpactaTap
can be used as a hand tap or machine tap
as well as an Impact Tap.

the great names of British industry like BAE
Systems, Cammell Laird, and Portakabin.”
