Founded in Pittsburgh in 1946 by Robert W. Cypher and incorporated in 1953, The Cypher Company supplies and assembles hydraulic and industrial hose products and fittings. It began serving construction and mining industries, and was an early independent distributor of staple-lock adapters and hose assemblies for longwall mines; today its main office, warehouse, and facility in Monroeville includes 56,000 square feet of warehouse space, alongside a Price, Utah warehouse and assembly facility opened in 1998.
