gTool is a mobile repair tools manufacturing company. Its headquarters is in Pretoria, South Africa.
History
gTool was founded by George Hajipetrou in a small mobile repair shop situated in the north of Johannesburg, South Africa. The company was created in order to meet the high demand for mobile phone repairs. The repair shop was later acquired by a corporate firm. This gave George Hajipetrou an opportunity to concentrate on developing repair tools.
Products

The gTool ScreenJack

The gTool iCorner
The gTool iCorner is used to rectify dented corners and sidewalls on iPads and iPhones. It works as a vice which fits over the affected area and when the knob is turned, it conforms the corner back to its original shape.
