What SPC is, who we serve, the products and brands we carry, and how quoting and ordering work. If your question is not answered here, our team is one message away.
SPC Company (Specialty Products and Components) is a distributor-first supply partner for compressed air and pneumatic automation. SPC connects manufacturer lines with the distributors who bring their products to market, helping those distributors expand their offering, streamline sourcing, and serve their customers better.
SPC was founded in 1999, starting as a master distributor of pneumatic fittings. Since then, SPC has expanded into compressed air systems and pneumatic automation, building a focused product portfolio and a network of manufacturer relationships.
Yes. SPC Company is US-based and supplies distributor partners across the country. SPC sources from manufacturer relationships in the US and internationally, then supports those lines through its distribution network.
No. SPC is a distributor-first supply partner and works exclusively with distributors. SPC does not sell direct to end-user companies or the general public. If you need an SPC-carried product, contact a distributor in the SPC network.
SPC partners with industrial distributors, from small specialty shops to established multi-line distributors, who serve customers in compressed air and pneumatic automation. The SPC model gives these partners product range, technical depth, and supply-chain support to help them grow and compete.
Through its distribution partners, SPC products reach a wide range of industries: manufacturing and assembly, food and beverage processing, automotive and transportation, energy and utilities, and electronics and automation. SPC's product range and technical support are built to address the requirements of each.
Yes, on a supported, inbound basis. SPC can support OEM component needs and project-based volume while protecting distributor relationships. If an OEM is already served by an SPC distributor partner, SPC keeps that business with the distributor and supports them.
SPC carries products across the full compressed air and pneumatic automation ecosystem:
SPC structures the compressed air system across eight stages: generation (compressors), treatment (dryers, filters, condensate management), storage (receiver tanks), distribution (piping, fittings, tubing), control (valves, FRLs, regulators), end-use (tools, actuators, equipment), monitoring (gauges, sensors), and service and MRO (lubricants, replacement parts). SPC carries products across all eight, so distributors can source the full system from one partner.
Pneumatic automation covers the control and motion components that use compressed air to drive industrial machines: directional control valves, cylinders, actuators, fittings, tubing, and accessories. SPC serves every layer, from connection and conveyance (fittings, tubing) through motion and control (valves, cylinders) to monitoring and service.
Yes. SPC carries on-site nitrogen generation systems as a compressed air system add-on. Available technologies include PSA (pressure swing adsorption) and membrane nitrogen generators for applications that need a dedicated nitrogen supply.
Yes. SPC's range includes components for explosive and hazardous atmospheres, including explosion-proof compressed air dryers and static dissipative tubing suited to ATEX-adjacent environments. Contact the SPC team to discuss specific hazardous-location requirements.
Yes. SPC carries compressor lubricants, replacement filters, and maintenance items for compressed air upkeep, including synthetic lubricants with extended drain intervals and NSF H1 food-grade formulations for food and beverage applications.
Yes. SPC carries modular compressed air piping for new installations and system upgrades. These systems are an alternative to traditional steel pipe, designed for fast, clean installation in industrial environments.
Yes. SPC can provide custom-kitted pneumatic sub-assemblies and pre-built component packages, useful for OEM accounts and panel builders that want to cut assembly labor and standardize builds. Ask about custom kitting options when you submit your RFQ.
