In 1982, Quality Stamping & Tube Corporation started out as a small, two-person tool and die/metal stamping business that was cozy in a 5000 square foot building. Two years later, QS&T started producing radiators for the OEM off-highway and stationary equipment sectors after acquiring new fabrication equipment. The company has benefited greatly from this decision, which has led to consistent growth and 15 patents for ground-breaking OEM radiator designs. In order to complete its production and metal fabrication capabilities, QS&T added an aluminum extruder in 1999.
