American Securities announced the completion of the sale of MW Components, a manufacturer of highly engineered specialty fasteners, springs, and precision metal components, to Rosebank Industries in a transaction valued at approximately $950 million.
Headquartered in Charlotte, MW Components manufactures mission-critical fasteners, springs, and precision metal components for customers across aerospace & defense, electronics, semiconductors, medical, energy, agriculture, and other industrial markets. Since American Securities invested in the company in 2017, MW Components has expanded through strategic acquisitions, operational improvements, and investments in talent, equipment, and technology.
During American Securities’ ownership, MW Components increased its exposure to higher-growth markets, including aerospace & defense, electronics, and semiconductors. The company also enhanced its digital and e-commerce capabilities by developing its proprietary SNAP software platform, designed to facilitate rapid quoting.
In addition, MW Components completed nine strategic add-on acquisitions that expanded its product portfolio, manufacturing capabilities, and commercial reach across North America. These initiatives supported the company’s development into a platform operating across three divisions: Fasteners, Springs, and Precision Components.
Michael Fisch, Founder & CEO of American Securities, said the company was proud of MW Components’ growth during the partnership period and highlighted the work completed alongside Tom Amato and the broader management team to strengthen the company’s leadership position and operational capabilities.
