Borg & Beck is a British car parts company owned by First Line Ltd.[1][2]Template:R/superscript[3]
It was started as a tool company in Moline, Illinois, in the United States, by Charles Borg and Marshall Beck.[4] In 1909 they invented the first practical sliding clutch.[5][6] It merged with other companies in 1928 to become BorgWarner.[4] In 1931, the Borg & Beck Company Limited was set up by Automotive Products in the UK to manufacture clutches under American patents from Borg & Beck in the USA.[7] This allowed the company to sell British made Borg & Beck clutches in Great Britain, British Overseas Territories and the British Empire (except Canada).[8]
The company was particularly successful in the UK, where, during the 1970s, over 85% of British-made vehicles had a Borg & Beck clutch fitted as OE.[6] The Borg & Beck brand was purchased in 2006 by First Line Ltd.[6] who supply over 40,000 products across 60 different product groups to the Automotive Aftermarket globally.[7]
