Task force tips
Task Force Tips (TFT) helps firefighters save lives and protect property by designing and manufacturing innovative tools, creating engaging learning resources and providing passionate customer support that helps them perform at their best in dangerous situations.
The company’s story began in the basement of founder Clyde McMillan, who pioneered a new way for firefighters to control nozzle pressure—revolutionizing fireground safety and performance. From those humble beginnings, TFT has grown into a global leader in water, foam and air flow technology. Today, thousands of TFT products are trusted by fire departments around the world, built to perform under the most demanding conditions.
Headquartered in Valparaiso, Indiana—just minutes from its original home—TFT brings together advanced engineering, precision manufacturing, and dedicated customer support under one roof. Every product is guided by the company’s mission: to give firefighters the reliable tools they need to protect their communities and return home safely.
For the TFT team, this mission is a shared passion. It’s what drives innovation, fuels craftsmanship, and inspires pride in being part of a company that makes the world a safer place.
