History

Jim Dorn, a Mechanical Engineer, founded Mechanical Components in 1976 distributing mechanical components and fasteners to his customers. Today, Mechanical Power is a leading organization in global product sourcing to solve all of our customer’s needs. 

Along with our dedicated account management and purchasing teams, we have engineers both in house and internationally that will collaborate with your purchasing and engineering departments to optimize all facets of your product sourcing.

As a global sourcing company, we are more than just a bearing distributor or bearing supplier.

Our organization is best known for saving our customers time and money by expertly navigating the delicate balance of managing inventory requirements, forecasting, and precision quality for all of your industrial component sourcing.
