In 1985, Cullman Ind., a sprocket manufacturer in Wheeling, IL, discontinued operations. Allied-Locke purchased a portion of the Cullman equipment and hired some of their employees. From this beginning, our sprocket offering has grown to complement the chain sizes now offered by Allied-Locke.

In 1988, Allied-Locke purchased Chain Engineering Co. (CEC), a marketer of precision roller chains for the previous 28 years. With this acquisition, Allied-Locke positioned itself as one of the major suppliers of precision roller chain in the United States.

In 1992, Allied-Locke purchased the Moline Corporation. Moline was a producer of Engineering class chains for the industrial market since 1869. This acquisition added a full range of industrial chains to Allied-Locke’s product offering.

In 2001, Allied-Locke established an environmental products division and expanded into producing and marketing products for the water treatment industry.
