DCK named exclusive tools partner for CFMOTO Thunder Racing Team
Toolmaker DCK has been named the exclusive power‑tools partner of the CFMOTO Thunder Racing Team, the two companies announced in a press release. The deal will put DCK-branded tools and service kits in the team’s pit boxes, on support trucks and at fan events, and gives DCK permission to use the team’s name and imagery on selected promotional products. For race fans and dealers, the change will be visible as co-branded equipment and trackside signage. For the companies, the move aims to link DCK’s professional tool image to a fast-growing motorsport platform that reaches riders and mechanics alike.
What the deal covers: tools, branding and exclusivity
Under the agreement, DCK becomes the sole supplier of handheld and workshop power tools for the CFMOTO Thunder Racing Team across event and promotional uses. The scope named cordless drills, impact wrenches, battery packs, chargers and a range of workshop equipment that the team will use for trackside repairs and vehicle setup. The deal also covers co-branded merchandise: DCK can produce limited-run tool kits and apparel that carry both brands, and the team will feature DCK logos on its trucks, crew uniforms and in some digital content. Both sides described the partnership as exclusive within the tools category, meaning other tool brands will not be promoted alongside DCK at team events. The announcement did not list detailed financial terms or minimum purchase commitments, and it left room for regional variations in how products will reach fans and dealers.
Why the partnership makes sense for both companies
On paper, the fit makes sense for both sides. DCK gets a high-profile stage where its tools will be used where speed and reliability matter. That helps the brand sell the idea that its gear is built for real, rough work — not just neat displays in a store. For CFMOTO, the partnership fills a practical need: having a reliable single supplier simplifies pit logistics during races and ensures the team has consistent hardware for repairs. Marketing-wise, the team reaches riders, amateur mechanics and dealership customers who are likely in the market for tools and small parts. The deal also opens doors for co-promotions at dealer events and local races, and for special edition tool kits timed to new bike launches. Both companies framed the move as a way to deepen relationships with service shops and grassroots racing communities, rather than a short-term sponsorship splash.
Who the partners are and their track record
DCK is a producer of professional power tools and workshop equipment that sells through distributors and independent dealers. It has built a reputation in some markets for sturdy, no-frills gear aimed at tradespeople and service shops. CFMOTO is a manufacturer of motorcycles, ATVs and side-by-sides that has been expanding its presence in international racing and customer events through the CFMOTO Thunder Racing Team. The team competes in regional road and endurance events and has used sponsorship ties to grow brand awareness. Neither company listed public market tickers in its announcement.
What this means for sales and brand visibility
For DCK, the visible link to a racing team can lift brand credibility and spark sales among mechanics and hobby riders. CFMOTO gains a dependable partner for technical support and a fresh revenue stream from co-branded products. The effect on national sales will likely be modest at first, but the partnership strengthens dealer relationships and gives both companies materials to promote at events, dealer open days and regional marketing campaigns.
What to watch next
Watch for a rollout timeline and the first co-branded products. The announcement did not give launch dates or sales channels, so the next steps to monitor are product release notices, event sponsorship schedules and any dealer promotions. Mechanics, team partners and dealers will want to note warranty and service arrangements when co-branded kits appear, and fans should expect signage and kit promotions at upcoming races.
