Since 1946, third-generation family-owned Brooks’ Machine Products has operated in Unadilla as a contract manufacturer and engineering partner specializing in small, precision metal parts, including fine MIL-SPEC and FAR 21 aerospace work. The company also makes its own 100% American-designed and manufactured panel punches, and in 2021 began producing tinned-brass terminals after customers sought a more reliable source. Brooks’ parts have even flown on the Space Shuttle, while its current work serves both major aerospace manufacturers and smaller companies.
