For over 58 years, JB Industries has stayed true to its roots as an authentic American manufacturer, designing and building rugged, high-performance HVAC/R tools in our Aurora, Illinois factory. Our vacuum pumps and tools are solid, reliable, and built without shortcuts for the kind of performance technicians can depend on, job after job.
“Made in America” isn’t just a label for us - it’s a philosophy. Building and buying American takes guts, and we’re proud to stand with our wholesale partners who believe that still matters.
JB Industries exclusively supports Authorized Wholesale Distribution Channels.
CUTTING CORNERS ISN'T AN OPTION HERE.
Every JB product is engineered, manufactured, and tested in our Aurora, Illinois facility to meet uncompromising quality standards. From sourcing domestic raw materials like brass, copper, and aluminum to keeping American jobs at the heart of our operation, we’ve kept quality front and center while staying true to the legacy that built us.
While much of the world has settled for “shipped here,” we’ve doubled down on our commitment to American manufacturing, because the difference between our tools and imports isn’t just noticeable, it’s measurable. Building and buying American isn’t the easy choice - but it’s the right one. And it’s what defines the JB way.
WE DELIVER SOLUTIONS FOR OUR PARTNERS - NOT EXCUSES.
JB has spent nearly six decades building trusted relationships throughout the HVAC/R trade. We team up with vendors, dealers, and wholesalers who share our values: service first, quality always, and never a race to the bottom on price.
Our goal is simple: make it easy for customers to do business with us. We back that up with friendly and knowledgeable customer support, short lead times, merchandising programs, and strong product warranties. Being a true manufacturer means we can adjust or customize products to fit the exact needs of any order, because building real partnerships means being flexible and dependable.
WE INNOVATE TOOLS, NOT TOYS.
JB engineers smart, rugged, and award-winning tools designed to help technicians get on and off the jobsite quickly. We know our tools are used in demanding environments, so we don’t cut corners with plastic parts or unnecessary frills. Instead, we invest in extensive R&D and robust raw materials to ensure every tool stands up to water, heat, cold, and repeated use.
Many of our products - most notably our vacuum pumps - are 100% field repairable, giving technicians an investment built to last for years. For over half a century, JB products have delivered the power, performance, and durability trade professionals depend on.
WE KEEP SERVICE AT THE CORE OF WHAT WE DO.
Customer service is where JB’s commitment comes full circle. Our customer service and product support teams in Aurora, Illinois are always ready to respond - no automated systems, no waiting on hold - just real people who know our products and can provide fast, knowledgeable support.
Our made-to-order stocking model keeps products available and lead times short, outpacing any import, hands down. Every order ships directly to wholesalers and distributors across the U.S. and around the world, backed by the reliability and performance of American-made products.
WE BELIEVE IN FUELING THE U.S. WORKFORCE AND SUPPORTING OUR COMMUNITIES.
At JB, we’re not just building tools, we’re building opportunity. We’ve always stood for more than quality; we stand for American jobs, skilled labor, and craftsmanship. Keeping production in the U.S. means keeping opportunity here, and every job we create strengthens the trades we serve.
We’re also proud to give back. We support trade schools nationwide and donate a portion of proceeds from our PATRIOT Manifold to Operation Homefront, helping U.S. military families access the resources and stability they deserve.
Since its founding in 1967, JB has proudly manufactured its products here in the United States of America. Here are four important reasons why our products are JUST BETTER, and why Made in America is a key component of our business philosophy.
