American Made - Plumbing Zone

Plumber Jim · 04-05-2009, 03:36 PM

I got to thinking it would be cool to start a thread listing what companies/products (plumbing and heating related) that we know are still American made and what ones are not. I always thought B&G pump parts where American made but just bought an oem coupler to see china stamped on it

. I know you can get Appollo ball valves either international or American made. I bet the list on the china side will be alot longer

Ok, I'll start.

Bradford White water heaters
Appollo valves (not the international ones)
Brasscraft stops
Delta

......

your turn
