Weldaloy Specialty Forgings

Weldaloy was founded in 1946 by James O’Grady, who took advantage of the advances in resistance welding techniques which had been developed during World War II. Weldaloy soon installed furnaces to melt copper billets and to produce its own alloys after experiencing difficulties in finding reliable, quality alloy suppliers. Weldaloy added forging capability and became a reputable source for seam welding wheels. In September of 1994, Weldaloy was purchased by its current owner Rick Warren. Today, Weldaloy is a leading supplier of forged copper, titanium, super alloys, and other non-ferrous products to industries such as aerospace, oil and gas, power equipment, semiconductor, and material processing. Weldaloy was founded in 1946 by James O’Grady. Weldaloy becomes a major supplier for General Motors Corporation. Weldaloy opens machining plants in Clare, Michigan and in Chagrin Falls, Ohio.
