Camron US needle nose pliers


Once again a tool company that no one seems to know much about. The always-useful Garage Journal has a thread on Camron tools, they concluded they probably were a postwar manufacturing company named Cameron Mfg. Co., of Emporium, PA which eventually became ProAmerica Premium Tools- also of Emporium, PA.
 So although the tools keep turning up, they're still a bit of a mystery.

    I used to work for the US Navy, they had lots of pliers made by Camron. I've never heard of them in a retail setting. Makes me think they were in the gov. contracting business exclusively

    Thanks for the info! What time period would that have been?

    It amazes me that a company that mostly makes their tools in the USA is still alive and kicking. If I see them around, I'd be sure to give them my business.
