Distributor

Anixter/Pentacon, Inc.

Distributes fasteners and other C-class components such as screws, nuts, and small hardware, providing inventory-management and supply-chain services to OEMs in aerospace, industrial, and electronics manufacturing. Originally the U.S.-based fastener distributor Pentacon, Inc., it was acquired by Anixter International in 2002 and operated as part of Anixter's OEM Supply (fasteners) division serving customers in North America and Europe. That business was later divested in 2015 and continues today as Optimas OE Solutions.
