The year was 1892 when James B. Tuthill purchased a local clay quarry and a kiln and began supplying Chicago common bricks to local construction firms. Tuthill designed and marketed his pump design to companies that produced oil-fired boilers for use in residential and industrial heating. The Tuthill internal gear pump was well accepted and became the foundation for Tuthill Corporation. Tuthill Pump Company was established in 1927 and are produced in quantity by the Tuthill Pump Division and can be found in every corner of the globe. The firm s acquisition program was inaugurated in 1961 with the purchase of Mechanical Products Company, which was merged with the company s pump operations. Other acquisitions soon followed, and the present structure of Tuthill Corporation was formalized in 1966.
