What should be specified when sourcing tools and hardware?
Hardware is the most deceptive line in procurement: unit prices are low, so the buying starts without a list — and a workshop set has 60–80 line items. Anyone buying from memory statistically misses 10–15 of them, and the missed items are not random: the expensive ones are remembered and the cheap but indispensable ones are forgotten — hex key sets, taps and dies, drill bit sets, insulating tape, penetrating oil. Where a tool is used on or near live parts, the specification is not a preference: insulated hand tools must be certified to IEC 60900 / EN 60900 and marked with the double triangle and 1000 V. A plastic-handled tool is not an insulated tool.
Scope: We supply materials in this category. We do not provide tool repair and calibration services. Our commitment ends with delivering the right product, in the right quantity, on the stated date to the delivery point named on the quote — anywhere across Türkiye’s 81 provinces, or abroad under the agreed Incoterm.
Hardware items are small but endlessly varied; collecting them piecemeal from dozens of shops is a real time drain for procurement teams. AKSCO consolidates long hardware lists into one quote, presenting branded and economy alternatives side by side.
For power tools we work with professional-grade series and recommend the right class for heavy use. For consumables (discs, bits, gloves, tape) a replenishment routine can be set to your teams’ monthly consumption.

The items in this category are part of a pool of 45 listed items here, published together with every other category on the A to Z supply list — each with a short technical description and the unit it is ordered in. The same list is downloadable as a brand-free technical specification in Word and a unit-price schedule in Excel. That pool is a starting point rather than a boundary: items outside it are quoted the same way, from their measurable specification.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can we buy hundreds of units of a single item?
Yes. Volume discounts apply on quantity purchases; quotes include tiered pricing tables.
How does power tool warranty work?
Products carry distributor warranty; in case of failure we manage the authorised service process on your behalf.
What is the difference between an insulated tool and a plastic-handled tool?
An insulated tool is tested and certified to IEC 60900 / EN 60900 for live working up to 1000 V AC, and is marked with the double-triangle symbol and the voltage rating. A plastic-handled tool has no such rating — the handle is for grip, not protection. For work on or near live parts only the certified tool is acceptable, and the marking is what makes it acceptable, not the appearance.
Should tools be bought as a set or individually?
As a set for the base kit and individually for replacement. A set covers the gaps that a memory-driven purchase misses, and the per-piece price is lower. Once the workshop is running, replacement is item-driven: the calliper and the most-used spanner sizes wear out first and are worth stocking as a spare.
Can consumables and tools be quoted together?
Yes, and it is the efficient way. Fasteners, abrasives, tape and lubricants are consumed continuously while tools are replaced occasionally; quoting them on one list means one order, one delivery and one invoice instead of a recurring small-order cycle.
Do you ship outside Türkiye?
Yes. We deliver across all 81 provinces of Türkiye and arrange export shipments abroad. On export orders the delivery term is agreed at quotation stage under Incoterms 2020 — EXW, FCA, CPT or DAP — and the quote states which party arranges and pays for carriage, and where our responsibility ends. Country of origin, HS code and any conformity documents needed for export are settled at the same stage.
What does an export quote include, and what does it not?
It includes the goods, export packing where required, and carriage up to the point defined by the agreed Incoterm. It does not include destination-country duties, taxes or customs charges — those sit with the buyer. Cargo insurance is not automatic under EXW, FCA, CPT or DAP; if you want it arranged, say so in the request and it appears as a separate line. Turkish VAT is zero-rated on exports once export clearance is completed.
Is there a minimum order for an export shipment?
There is no fixed minimum, but freight economics set a practical floor: on a low-value single-line order, carriage can exceed the value of the goods. Consolidating several categories into one shipment is usually what makes an export order worth placing — which is the same reason our buyers consolidate domestically. Tell us the delivery country and we will say honestly whether the freight makes sense before you spend time on a specification.
These three questions are the same on every category and industry page. The full answer — Incoterms, the document set and ISPM 15 packing — is in our export shipping guide.
