The American Roller Bearing Company was started in 1911 by C.F. Succop and several investors. Its first manufacturing plant was located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In the early years, and during the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, American manufactured bearings for heavy duty industrial equipment, including bearings used by the United States Military for the World War I and World War II war efforts. Over the years, C.F.'s son W.G. Succop, now 'The Chief', gradually bought out the remaining investors and gained control of the company in the mid-1950s. Today, the family still owns and operates 100% of the company. For over 100 years, American has been manufacturing quality anti-friction bearings for thousands of different types of industrial equipment used in industries including electrical power generation, mining and rock crushing, primary metal making and rolling mills, oilfield equipment, construction equipment, railroad, gear drives, corrugated box and papermaking, and wind energy. Today American's headquarters are located in Hickory, North Carolina, which is also home to its three manufacturing facilities.
