Manufacturing Technology

Established in 1970, Hariton Machinery Co Inc specialises in providing new and used machinery to the global fastener industry, as well as buying surplus equipment, whether that’s a single machine or entire factory – anywhere in the world.

Mark Hariton, owner at Hariton Machinery, underlines: “We are proud to be the leading dealer of used fastener and cold forming machinery in the world. We have the largest inventory of machines available worldwide and supply customers in Europe and Asia, in South America and of course in North America.”

From its warehouse in Bridgeport, Connecticut, USA, as well as European warehouses in Italy, Germany and the UK, Hariton Machinery supplies assembly machines, bolt making machines, chip wringers, cold headers, conveyors, in-line drawers, drills, feeders, forging presses, hot nut formers, headers, inspection machines, packaging equipment, lathes, pointers, threading machines, as well as wire drawers and more.

Mark highlights: “Customers can be rest assured that our machinery is quality stock. As members of the Machinery Dealers National Association (MDNA), we adhere to a code of ethics that means any machine sold from our inventory or stock comes with a 30 day unconditional return privilege. If there’s a problem with a machine once it’s received, and we can’t resolve the problem to the customer’s satisfaction, they can return the machine for a total, full refund of the purchase price.”

As well as selling new and used equipment, Hariton Machinery also focuses on buying surplus equipment – from a single machine up to an entire manufacturing facility. Mark explains: “During the past 50 years we have been involved in the outright purchase of a number of small and larger fastener manufacturing facilities. We are willing to make an offer on a single piece of equipment or an entire facility and are immediately available to discuss requirements on a confidential basis. We will go anywhere in the world to inspect and buy surplus machinery – with sales representatives in the USA, Mexico, India, Australia, South Korea, Brazil, Germany, Japan, Thailand, Turkey, Spain and Italy.”

This global presence is also shown through Hariton Machinery’s participation in fastener trade shows across the globe. This includes Fastener Fair Global, wire^®, the CBM fastener show, as well as trade fairs in India and Mexico.

Another area of expertise for Hariton Machinery is the appraisal and evaluation of fastener equipment. Mark explains: “This appraisal could be done for you, or your bank, or perhaps a leasing organisation who may be interested in financing the purchase of additional equipment for use in your facility. We presently have two certified and accredited appraisers on hand for any appraisal need.”

Mark concludes: “My wife and I started Hariton Machinery in 1970, which means we have been in constant contact with major manufacturers throughout the world, for over 50 years. It’s this experience and know-how that enables us to offer the best new and used model equipment, as well as maintaining an inventory of hundreds of machines, with more coming in daily. Let’s start the next 50 years together.”
