DANA HOLDING CORPORATION LIGHT DUTY & AUTOMOTIVE
About Dana Holding Corporation
With over a century of manufacturing experience under its belt, Dana Holding Corporation has long been providing the automotive and truck parts industry with products that have helped propel the world's most incredible vehicles. Over the years, this manufacturer takes pride in its long list of innovations that paved the way for some notable power conveyance revolutions.
Founded by Clarence Spicer in 1904 as the Spicer Manufacturing Corporation, this manufacturer has since transformed the mobility industry. Spicer's invention of the encased u-joint has unchained the industry by eliminating the need for chains and sprockets. These first C.W Spicer u-joints are shipped to Corbin Motor Company in Connecticut and are used by Buick Motor Co., Mack Bros. Motor Co., American Motors, Olds Motor Works, and Kelly-Springfield Motor Truck Co. two years after.
In 1914, Attorney Charles Dana bought a controlling interest in Spicer Manufacturing Company and eventually became the company's president and treasurer. To grow its product line beyond u-joints and propeller shafts, Charles Dana acquired three big companies that manufacture axle, transmission, and frame. In 1925, Spicer began its international operations in England. Three years later, Spicer's headquarters was transferred to Toledo, Ohio, making it closer to Detroit, the world's automotive center. During the Great Depression, when sales of trucks, cars, and buses were at their lowest point, Spicer was among the few companies that remained profitable.
To recognize Charles Dana's 32 years of leadership, the Spicer Manufacturing Corporation was renamed Dana Corporation in 1946. Spicer then became the company's brand name for its driveline products. It expanded its presence to South American in 1954, and in 1957, Dana introduced its first cruise control system, which was used in 1958 Chrysler models. Dana acquired Viktor Gasket Manufacturing Company in 1966, and in 1977, it started exporting products to 123 countries. The year 1982 became notable for the company with the introduction of the first all-aluminum driveshaft. Dana's acquisition of the Reinz Company happened in 1993, paving the way for the new Victor Reinz brand of gaskets, heat shields, and sealing solutions. Its acquisition of the Plumley Rubber Company in Tennessee reinforced its sealing solutions portfolio.
