Kearsarge Peg Co., Inc. is a business located in Bartlett, NH that has been in continuous operation in this location since 1878. The company has prospered through the years on its reputation for quality products and timely delivery. The original product (hardwood shoe pegs and hardwood tumbling media) is still manufactured in the facility, and in fact, Kearsarge is the only manufacturer of this product in North America.

In the 1980’s the company started a research and development effort to diversify its product line. This effort produced the “PEGCO Process Laboratories Division”, a subsidiary with a number of activities related to abrasive tumbling and metal finishing. This PEGCO division currently manufactures a wide variety of abrasive materials that are used in conjunction with hardwood tumbling media. The division also maintains a process laboratory that solicits metal finishing problems from customers, and then develops processes using materials made by PEGCO, along with others, and machinery that PEGCO offers for sale. On July 19, 2004 Kearsarge Peg Co., Inc purchased the assets of “The Finishing Touch Co.” which added more diversity to the products offered to customers. The Finishing Touch specializes in polishing and finishing in the blasting and chemical finishing sectors of manufacturing.

About Pegco

History PEGCO was established in 1865 in Andover, NH by Gerry and Augustus Morgan and the Baker, Carr & Sons Co. Sometime later Baker, Carr & Sons’ interest appears to have been purchased by Jacob R. Foster and he along with the Morgan brothers moved the Kearsarge Peg Co. operations to Bartlett, NH in 1878. The two Morgan brothers purchased Mr. Foster’s interest in the business, and ran the business until a fire destroyed the plant in 1905.

At this time, the trademarks and goodwill of the business were purchased by Edwin and George Foster (sons of the Jacob mentioned above) who rebuilt and operated the plant from 1911 until it was purchased by Stanley E. Davidson and Francis L. Brannen in 1944. These two operated the Bartlett facility until Mr. Brannen’s death in 1962, whereupon Mr. Davidson became the sole owner.

In 1966, the firm was incorporated in the State of New Hampshire with Stanley E. Davidson Sr., as President and Stanley E. Davidson Jr. as Vice President. This arrangement continued until 1979 when Mr. Davidson Sr. retired and the corporation redeemed his stock, leaving Mr. Davidson Jr. as the sole stockholder of the corporation.

On June 21, 2001, Paul Soares purchased 100% of the Kearsarge Peg Co., INC. stock.

What We Do In 1992 a management consulting company conducted a management review of the business and concluded that there was room for significant growth. As a result, Kearsarge and its PEGCO subsidary, broadened the company’s product line far beyond the original hardwood peg products and specialized in the manufacture of “dry process” and other abrasive surface finishing material. The company now markets abrasive and finishing machinery and supplies to a national customer base. It is poised for significant growth as a result of the current incentives on the part of many manufactuers to utilize “dry process” finishing technologies, to eliminate problems related to the disposal of effluent generated by “wet process” finishing systems.

We do deburring, burnishing and polishing dry processing of metal, plastic, and wood parts. We specialize in high luster finishes on metals and plastics.

Since it’s purchase in 2001 Kearsarge Peg Co., has added job shopping to its services. If customers do not want to do the finishing they can send the parts to us and we will finish them. We are experts in finishing and can save the customer both labor and equipment costs.
