G & G Manufacturing Company

Your Source for Quality Power Transmission Products Since 1943

About Us

gus

In November of 1943, George Graske had an idea for a business. He had come up with a way to make piston rings for locomotives in his basement. George quickly enlisted the help of his brother, Gus. They produced these parts together in George's basement until Florence, George's wife, got tired of the noise. The two brothers moved their business into a rented garage on 21st and Cummings Streets in North Omaha. Their tools were rather rickety, but they had a start.

 

Today G&G has developed into a 200,000 square foot, seven building operation servicing all of North America. Once a sole supplier of agriculture components, G&G supplies products used in coal mining, recreation, home building, the food industry and many other fields.

  • We stock a variety of Weldasprocket® plates for No. 35 to No. 100 Roller Chain
  • We offer several sizes and styles of finished bore Weldahubs®
  • Hardened Tooth and Implement Chain Weldasprockets® are also available from stock
