About Us
since 1951 Providing quality finishing products
Our History
Burr King Manufacturing was founded in 1951 by Don MacCarthy Sr. in East Los Angeles, CA. However, MacCarthy’s passion for belt grinders started long before that when he became the sole designer for belt grinders at Pacific Abrasive before leaving to start his own company.
In 1995, current CEO, Don MacCarthy Jr. took over the company and moved it to its current location in Warsaw, MO. Now a third generation family business, Burr King Manufacturing has continued to expand its products and services to better meet customer needs and remain a renowned leader in their industry.
