Automotive Technology Tool List
Automotive technicians in general are required to furnish their own hand tools. To enable graduates to secure jobs and allow students to participate in hands-on projects, they are required to obtain the tool inventory. The following list represents a basic entry-level inventory. Students enrolled in TTC Automotive courses are entitled to major discounts from some tool suppliers. Your advisor can provide details.
