President Keith Brenton Welcomes You to Autoswage

Autoswage was established by our grandfather, Bartley E. Hall, and two partners, in a small garage on Roberts Street in Shelton, Connecticut in late 1946. It was originally called HGH Products and produced contact pins for fluorescent lighting. In 1952 operations moved to the Star Pin Building on Canal Street and the name was officially changed to Auto-Swage Products. At that time, Grandfather bought out his two partners and became the sole owner.

Bart Hall's engineering skills and expertise led him to design the very machines we use today for our proprietary automatic die swaging and automatic die pin rolling manufacturing processes. The design features created by our grandfather allows us to produce high quality pins at faster production rates and lower costs than screw machines and other manufacturing processes. Our customers today continue to benefit from his foresight and technical acumen.

Autoswage has been at its 28,000 square foot River Road address since 1966. It was at this facility that plating services were established in the mid-sixties. Donald L. Brenton, our father and Grandfather Hall's son in law, joined the firm in 1966 and successfully led the company until his retirement in 1998. Sadly, Grandfather Hall passed away in 1973.

Today my brother David and I run the business. Together we continue the family tradition of providing our clients with high quality parts, personalized customer service and the lowest possible prices. In a continued effort to ensure high quality standards in our operations we maintain our ISO9001:2000 certification.

Autoswage has a standing commitment to provide its customers with high quality contact pins, connector pins and electronic and mechanical small metal parts, as well as onsite finishing and plating services.

David and I are happy to speak with you and answer any questions you may have about how our manufacturing processes can provide you with the part you need, and the finishing services you require, all at a low price that will make you smile!

Thank you for your interest. We look forward to getting to know you.

Sincerely,
Keith Brenton
President
