Introduction
Getting the right cutting tools, tool holders, and abrasives onto the shop floor is one challenge. Keeping the coolant concentration in every CNC machine within the correct range, shift after shift, is a separate one that often goes unmanaged. Pilot P.B. has supplied manufacturers in Quebec since 1903. Its range already covers much of what happens at the machine. AUTOPILOT adds automated monitoring, mixing, and refilling of coolant, closing the gap between having the right tooling and maintaining the conditions those tools need to perform.
Who is Pilot P.B. Inc.
In business in Quebec since 1903
Pilot P.B. is headquartered in Boucherville, on the South Shore of Montreal, Quebec. The company was founded in 1903 as Pilot Steel and Tools, initially focused on steel trading. It moved into industrial tool distribution in 1950 and was renamed Pilot P.B. in 1987. Today it offers more than 500,000 products from around 50 manufacturers and advises customers on the right tool for their manufacturing needs, supporting them before, during, and after the sale.
Its portfolio covers the core needs of a machining operation:
- Cutting tools, including drills, taps, and milling tools from brands such as Sandvik, OSG, Mapal, and Dormer-Pramet
- Tool holders and collets from suppliers including Rego-Fix and Techniks
- Abrasives from Norton, Tyrolit, and others
- Vises, fixtures, and workholding solutions
- Metrology equipment and inventory management solutions, including products from Mitutoyo
Why Pilot P.B. Inc. and Liquidtool
A natural step from tooling and abrasives to coolant automation
Coolant manufacturer Blaser Swisslube is one of the brands Pilot P.B. carries alongside its cutting tools and abrasives. AUTOPILOT extends that range from supplying coolant to automating how it is monitored, mixed and refilled at the machine. The two fit together without overlap.
For manufacturers in Quebec and the Montreal region, this means a single local contact covers tooling selection, coolant supply and automated coolant management with AUTOPILOT. Instead of managing those needs through separate channels, they can work with Pilot P.B. across the full scope.
