In 1903 Hallowell and Harald F. Gade, a Norwegian engineer, along with their friends and relatives, started the Standard Pressed Steel Company in a rented Philadelphia plant to make the improved hangars.

In 1906 the firm began making socket set screws and soon a new plant was added just for the many screws, bolts, and other threaded items needed for the company's products.

1937

In 1937 the firm began making those screws in Coventry, England, which led to the founding of Unbrako Socket Screw Company Ltd.
