BACKGROUNDMore than hundred years of accumulated experience, partnership with leading manufacturers, relationship building with its clients, and continuing education on the products they sell are the solid foundations upon which Midway Tool and Abrasives rests.

Midway Tool and Abrasives is the sister company to Midway Industrial Supply, a family-owned business started in 1960 and the Mid-Atlantic region’s largest independent distributor of power transmission products, bearings and industrial supplies. For over five decades, Midway Industrial Supply has taken pride in delivering the highest quality and best value to its customers, a philosophy that made it the regional leader in its field throughout New York and Pennsylvania.

“We’ve built our business by working very closely with our customers; by knowing and understanding their needs. We have an extensive outside sales force that has been calling on them for many years, and has assisted them throughout many changes.” says Paul Rockwell, President of Midway Tool and Abrasives.

With new end mills in small diameters, equipped with size 07 inserts, the proven performance of CoroMill® 390 is now available for component features with limited cutting depth requirements. Due to the smaller inserts, a higher cutter teeth density delivers superior productivity in any type of milling operation. Add the steel grade GC1130, one of the key technological improvements for the world of milling, and your production is set for a profitable milling future.
