Japanese Murashiko MFG Went on an Inspection Tour of Its S. Korea Plant

Murakoshi MFG. Corp. is planning to enhance its foundation of overseas business. On June 9th and 10th the company went on an inspection tour of Murakoshi Asia, its factory in Ansan City of South Korea. The Ansan plant was set up in 2013 by the Fine Components Division of Murakoshi MFG.

Murakoshi MFG produces bleeder screws that are installed on brake calipers to discharge the air in brake fluid. The company's domestic plant in Nakoso City of Fukujima Prefecture produces 5 million pieces of bleeder screws a month, taking more than 50% of the total domestic production. In 2011 an earthquake occurred, and the establishment of Ansan plant is a hedge against the possible risks with the Nakoso plant.
