Cablecraft Motion Controls, a Torque Capital Group portfolio company, announced today that it has completed the purchase of RG Rollin Co., a designer and manufacturer of Ball Bearing Control (push-pull) cables and control systems. Based in Tacoma, WA, Rollin has a sixty-year history of delivering engineered solutions in the aerospace, defense, marine and industrial markets.

“The acquisition of Rollin provides an opportunity for Cablecraft to expand our product offerings and end markets further strengthening our existing Control Cable product line,” said Daniel Pappano, chief executive officer of Cablecraft. “Through the combination of new product technologies including high- efficiency Ball Bearing Control cables, growing presence in aerospace and defense, and exceptional quality, Rollin will continue to accelerate Cablecraft’s ambitious growth plans.”

“This is our fifth addition to the Cable Manufacturing & Assembly platform, following our earlier acquisitions of Glassmaster Controls, Cablecraft, wholesale distribution business from Instrument Sales & Service, and most recently Radial Bearing,” said Jonathan Saltzman, managing partner of Torque Capital Group. “Rollin’s defense & aerospace product portfolio and breadth of customer application knowledge make it an ideal fit with our strategy to further grow and diversify Cablecraft’s ability to provide a broad portfolio of engineered motion control solutions to a variety of end markets.”
