Brad Foote Gear Works is a leader in gearing in the United States. Since 1924, we have produced large, high-quality gearing systems for industrial markets as diverse as oil production, steel mills, power generation, transportation, and pulp and paper.

Even as we expand our focus on wind and other renewable energy development industries, we continue to provide exceptional service to our traditional sectors. All of these evolving markets require the highest level of quality and technical expertise and experience, and Brad Foote has it. We also prepare for the future with investments to ensure we’re ahead of customers’ growth and needs.

Recent multimillion-dollar investments have positively impacted our efficiency and quality in all aspects of manufacturing, including Grade 3 carburizing, in-house shot peening and tooth finishing. With 15 gear-form grinders, including the largest internal/external form grinder in the United States, our capabilities for high-quality ground-tooth gearing are unrivaled. We also have unique capabilities in large, bevel gear generation. Brad Foote can produce skived bevel gears more than 110 inches in diameter and helical gears up to 160 inches in diameter with our latest addition, a four-meter Hofler Grinder.

Our leadership doesn’t stop there. In 1993, we became the first gear manufacturer to become ISO 9001 certified. We also are one of the founding members of the American Gear Manufacturer's Association (AGMA), the governing body that oversees U.S. standards development.

We plan to continue leading the way in gearing, working with our customers and our partners to advance the craft and meet rapidly expanding needs of industry. And we want to work with you.
