Milton Industries, INC® was founded in 1943 as a family business with only a handful of products and a simple idea, 'Provide the highest quality products for our customers'

For the past 70 years, Milton® has been the product of choice when it comes to pneumatic accessories. We have invented numerous industry-standard products, including the classic M STYLE® “I/M” KWIK-CHANGE® Coupler and Plug, Window Inflator Gauge, Safety Blow Guns, and the iconic Driveway Signal chimes and bell. With these inventions, our portfolio has grown to over 1400 different SKUs. These products cover a broad range of applications in various industries, such as automotive, fleet maintenance, construction, and manufacturing. To this day, Milton® continues to be the industry leader in high-quality pneumatic accessories and fittings, proudly living up to our heritage of superior products and reliability.
