After thirty years of growth, The Tru-Weld Division was in its early planning stages. In the mid to late 1950s &#8220;stud welding&#8221; was on the rise due to new and cutting edge technological advancements in the engineering and manufacturing fields. The requirements for higher strength fasteners were in demand to be utilized for the auto, construction, aerospace, marine, and military\/defense industries.<\/p><p>Formed in 1959, Tru-Weld was created to cater to the growing market for these custom, high-strength, application-specific weld studs. Growing to a total of 25 employees, under the direction of President Harry Workman, Tru-Fit Products\u00a0 began to slowly make the move to Medina, Ohio in 1970. The move was staged to happen in several phases as to not disrupt workflow. Due to the weight restrictions of road transportation, most of the equipment was moved by rail car to the new 155,000 sq. foot plant in Medina.<\/p><p>Since moving to Medina, Tru-Fit Products has continued to expand.\u00a0 In 2012 an addition was added to allow for more racking space.\u00a0 In 2016 an additional 12,600 square feet of manufacturing floor created space for two new cold formers. Now in 2024 construction continues on additional square feet to allow for more storage and additional manufacturing capabilities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bfbd2eb elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"bfbd2eb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78cc9f4 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"78cc9f4\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-720d993 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"720d993\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-af6f2c9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"af6f2c9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/truweldstudwelding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMAG0174-1024x684.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2188\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/truweldstudwelding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMAG0174-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/truweldstudwelding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMAG0174-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/truweldstudwelding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMAG0174-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/truweldstudwelding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMAG0174-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/truweldstudwelding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/IMAG0174-2048x1367.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b3b64f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1b3b64f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d73cd43 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"d73cd43\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d7ef30a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d7ef30a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dcb4a66 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"dcb4a66\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Service, Quality, and Competitive Pricing<\/h2><p>The three vital steps that make the business world go around.
