In 1942, a group of investors purchased the Portsmouth foundry, assumed management, and began expanding the company into the broader casting market. Customers were developed in the air conditioning, transportation and power transmission industries. The conversion to commercial castings was completed in 1953 and all stove patterns were sold. The Ohio Stove Company changed its name to OSCO Industries, Inc., on its 100th anniversary, in 1972.
Today, OSCO has three casting plants located in South-Central Ohio. The major markets served are air conditioning and refrigeration, automotive, power-transmission equipment, pumps and valves.
