THE BRAND

WE ARE McELROY

In 1954, Art McElroy took the first steps in realizing his dream by starting a company in a small garage in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Today, McElroy not only designs, manufacturers and markets the industry's most complete line of fusion equipment — it also sets the worldwide standard for fintube machines. Furthermore, McElroy has an extensive history in design and has engineered a wide array of custom machines.

We believe in
building tools to
solve problems.
We believe people should
have the best tools
to do their job.
We believe tools should be
easy to use and should work
well, so jobs can be done
safer and with less time
and effort.
We believe in making tools
that last for years; and,
we believe in helping
people through education.
