General Chain

About Us

Integrity, Experience & Competence

Welcome to General Wire Form

a Division of GENERAL CHAIN & MFG. CORP.

Building a brighter tomorrow.

The General Chain and Manufacturing Corporation has two primary divisions.

In a time, where so many family-owned businesses have been bought up by private equity interests, General Chain is bucking the tide.

Rather than selling, the ownership has chosen to invest in building a high caliber engineering and production management team that is making it possible to compete with the big boys.

Our leadership brings senior engineering experience from one of the most revered CNC Wire and Tube Bender OEMs. And to compliment this, General Chain has an elite production management team backed by 25 years of prior experience and success at two of today’s most successful wire forming, stamping and welding companies.

The future is indeed bright, and we hope you will have a minute to email or call to discuss how we might be able to help you.
