Bearing supplier promises highest quality

Since its inception in 1951, Bartlett Bearing Co., the Philadelphia-based national distributor, has represented the core values of integrity, compassion, and pursuit of continuous learning, the company says. These are the principles that Tom and Gladys Bartlett instilled as the foundational elements of the business, “and we’re proud to continue their legacy over 70 years later,” the company says. Today the company’s promise to its customers is to provide “the best quality and service to give you the Bartlett Bearing experience you’ve come to know over the years.” By providing continuous education to employees, the company aims to ensure that its staff is able to assist customers with virtually any need.

At this year’s EASA Convention, Bartlett Bearing plans to showcase these values “with an established team of Bartlett leaders and experts.” On hand will be the company’s president, Sarah Musser, newly promoted vice president of sales operations Mike Pulley, and a team of sales professionals, including John Conway, Vic McDevitt Jr., Matt Forret, and Mike Cooper. On display will be a brand-new booth and Bartlett Bearing brochure. Bartlett Bearing notes: “We’re thrilled to come back to our roots in the electromechanical repair industry and share our applications expertise with our friends, colleagues, and customers.”
