WG Henschen Company History

Founded in 1959, WG Henschen entered the aerospace and defense market by representing Rosan (now HOWMET) as the world’s first Ring-Lock product distributor.

The company focused on providing best-in-industry service to OEM’s, MRO’s, airlines and the military; finding solutions for our customers no matter the volume of business or the size of an order. This is one of the reasons WG Henschen has a reputation for servicing large Long-Term-Agreements (LTAs) that include hundreds of different common and hard-to-find parts.

In 2001, Aerofast LTD and Millipart Fasteners merged with WG Henschen, extending the company’s global reach.

In 2015, WG Henschen was acquired and recapitalized by the Black Mountain Investment Company. The new owners developed a proprietary inventory system that gave WG Henschen the capability of providing over 99% on time delivery and the foresight to stock the parts the industry needs.

Today, WG Henschen is a rapidly growing distributor that provides customers with outstanding service, best-in-industry quality, and competitive prices.
