We buy all of our abrasives, polishing supplies and tools from Weldstar , as they bring us the best suppliers and work with us to find the best solutions to every problem .” Paul Yost - Titan Tool Works, LLC "We've worked with Weldstar for many years and they continue to provide quality materials with no certification problems, which is very important at a Nuclear plant. Their sales reps will do whatever is required and have gone the extra mile when called upon .“ David L. Diederich C.P.M. - Exelon Nuclear " Weldstar is the most reliable welding supplier that I have had the opportunity to work with and your order is never just another order“ George Hlifka - PCI Energy "Not too long ago our facility was flooded and under water from rain and river rising. When this happened we called Weldstar and requested that they bring some rental industrial supplies to our shop so we could continue to work. Not only did they bring us everything we asked for, but they rushed it and brought it the very next day. I was very impressed with their dedication to their customer and the way they tried everything they could to keep us up and running.” Tom Ehret - Welding Service, Inc.
