Portland Bolt & Manufacturing Co. acquired New York-based Bennett Bolt Works for an undisclosed sum.

Founded in 1978, Bennett Bolt Works manufactures bolts and fasteners for highway guardrail systems, bridge construction, and overhead sign structures.

The acquisition enhances Portland Bolt’s manufacturing capabilities and regional presence. In April, the company acquired Applied Bolting Technology in Vermont.

“Bennett Bolt Works has built a strong reputation in the highway and bridge infrastructure sector,” stated Portland Bolt CEO Blake Ray. “By bringing their specialized expertise into the Portland Bolt family, we are enhancing our ability to serve critical infrastructure projects across the country with greater efficiency and customer service.”

Portland Bolt will retain the existing Bennett Bolt Works team, led by president Eireann Bennett, and continue operations in Jordan, NY. The business will operate under the name Portland Bolt Northeast.

Founded in 1912, Portland Bolt manufactures nonstandard construction fasteners and bolts in Portland, OR; North Augusta, SC., Bellows Falls, VT; and Jordan, NY.
