NS ARC HISTORY & TIMELINE

2000s

In the 2000s, The Heico Companies purchased the assets of National Standard, Inc., and formed DW NS Stillwater, LLC to focus operations on welding, bead, and industrial wire manufacturing. This acquisition gave NS ARC access to global resources and support contributing to what the company has become today. In 2014, DW NS Stillwater, acquired RevWires based in Troy, Ohio, adding flux-cored and metal-cored welding wires to its Stillwater, Oklahoma, plant’s portfolio. Aluminum welding wires were added to the product portfolio shortly thereafter in 2015.
