There was still a screw/fastener industry in Rockford when we lived there, but United Technologies bought it out, and they were notorious for off-shoring. I worked for a time at Eclipse Combustion, that made the industrial burners that were placed everywhere from the GM paint room to the Moon Pie factory.
Even TAN Books was housed in a 1930s era plant on Harrison Ave. that built tank parts during WWII.

The bus, owned by Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Academy, suffered extensive damage after vandals threw more than one device through the vehicle’s windows. Photos show some of the seats reduced to little more than metal frame and ash. The driver’s area was also bombed, and appears to be unusable....
