About Spartan Tool Supply

Columbus’ Local Tool Supplier Since 1978

Spartan Tool Supply is a local tool and equipment distributor on Alum Creek Drive in Columbus, Ohio. We started out of the back of a van in the early 1970s and opened our first storefront in 1978. We’ve been on Alum Creek ever since.

Our customers are the people who use tools for a living: contractors, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, fabricators, maintenance crews and industrial buyers. They come to us because they need professional-grade tools, real answers from people who know the products, and the right part today, not next week.

That’s still how we run the business. Walk up to our counter and you’ll talk to someone who knows the difference between M18 and MX FUEL, can match the right blade to your material, and will order whatever isn’t on the shelf.
