On October 5, 2026, National Standard is dedicating all services to operate as a welding wire distributor and will be ceasing all manufacturing operations at our Stillwater, Oklahoma facility.

However, our NS ARC welding wire business will continue operating and serving customers, and our commitment to product quality, dependable supply, and customer service remains unchanged.

Through our NS ARC segment, we are operating with the same consistent product availability and dependable lead times as we continue to distribute our welding wire to those who need our expertise.

We are dedicated to ensuring a smooth transition and supply continuity throughout this change.

Thank you for your continued partnership, support, and confidence in National Standard’s journey.
