R&S Machining combines a wide range of machining capabilities—from large-format gantry work to Swiss turning and tight-envelope milling—with additional expertise in assembly and fabrication. Today, R&S is a trusted manufacturing partner in the aerospace and defense supply chain with a reputation for delivering complex work.

"R&S Machining significantly expands our capability set and our capacity to support our customers at scale," said Todd McDonald, CEO of Threadlock Precision. "Their team embodies the machining spirit and can-do attitude that Threadlock Precision is built on, and we look forward to working with them as they enter their next chapter of growth."

"Joining Threadlock Precision allows us to more fully leverage our expertise in precision manufacturing to offer a better level of service to our customers," said Tom Roderick, President of R&S Machining. "Threadlock's long-term focus and dedication to continuous investment in people and assets will allow us to further strengthen our position within the aerospace and defense supply chain."

The acquisition of R&S Machining marks Threadlock Precision's third acquisition in its mission of building the preferred precision manufacturing network serving aerospace and defense. R&S Machining's large-format machining, assembly capabilities, and engineering expertise further expand the network's offering.
