P.L. SCHMITT CARBIDE TOOLING LLC

American-Made Carbide Tooling Built for Partnership

P.L. Schmitt Carbide Tooling is a family-owned American manufacturer of precision solid carbide cutting tools located in Grass Lake, Michigan.

For more than 30 years, PLSCT has manufactured solid carbide tooling ranging from custom specials and miniature cutting tools to sustained production programs. Today, the company is led by President and Owner Ryan Powell, carrying forward the foundation built by Paul and Dawn Schmitt while continuing to invest in modern equipment, production capacity, and dependable manufacturing systems.

We specialize in private-label and OEM manufacturing for cutting-tool brands, industrial distributors, and manufacturers that need a reliable domestic production partner. Our capabilities include solid carbide end mills, ball nose end mills, square and corner-radius tooling, chamfer and reach tools, rib and clearance cutters, engraving tools, miniature tooling, and application-specific specials.

Our modern CNC grinding, blank-preparation, inspection, and production capabilities allow us to support everything from new-tool development to repeat, high-volume manufacturing. Whether you need help reproducing an existing tool line, expanding a catalog, developing a special, or adding supplemental production capacity, our team is built to support your program.

We believe the strongest manufacturing partnerships are built on communication, consistency, and trust. Our customers work directly with people who understand the tooling, the production process, and the responsibility that comes with manufacturing behind another company’s name.

Your brand remains your brand. Our job is to help make it stronger.
