Buschman is the metering technology leader, trusted by the world’s leading paper mills, converters, and paperboard and linerboard manufacturers. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, Buschman designs and manufactures high-performance metering rod solutions that boost the efficiency of coating operations and deliver real, bottom-line savings. Our proprietary manufacturing process produces the best metering rods and rod holders in the industry, enabling our customers to solve difficult coating challenges and apply coatings to their exact standards and specifications. Buschman metering rods are manufactured from stainless steel cores with hard chrome coating. Our products include: • Grooved metering rods; • Smooth metering rods; • Wire-wound metering rods, also called Mayer rods; • Rod holders and rod beds manufactured in hot cast polyurethane (PU) and UHMW polyethylene (PE); • Laboratory drawdown rod kits for quick use in the laboratory; • Michelman spare parts and service. Buschman is the only company that starts with coil steel and ends up with a precision finished product, all in one facility. We’re also the only manufacturer making our own hot cast polyurethane (PU) and UHMW polyethylene (PE) rod holders in our own plant. Every Buschman thread profile is custom-designed to optimize fluid dynamics, coat weight, and the smoothness of the coating without defect. Our dies are the most accurate in the world, to tolerances of millionths of an inch. This extraordinary precision produces reliable, repeatable results and the longest-lasting rods in the industry. Our ability to consistently deliver products that meet the quality standards our customers demand is core to the Buschman mission and the primary reason we have earned deep customer loyalty and established so many customer relationships lasting more than 40 years. From product design to ordering to delivery, our team is committed to customer satisfaction at every step of the process.
