Tuthill Transfer Systems (TTS) is a wholly owned, privately held subsidiary of Tuthill Corporation, located in Burr Ridge, IL. Tuthill Corporation has a long history in the development of new products for the pump markets. Dating back to 1892, Chicago builders needed a vast supply of construction material to fuel the city's rapid expansion. James B. Tuthill purchased a local clay quarry and a kiln and began supplying Chicago common bricks to local construction firms. Tuthill searched for an efficient way to lift the clay from the quarry floor and deliver the company's bricks to construction sites. In the early 1920's, his inquiries turned up a new transportation idea—a steam-powered truck engine.
The design of the engine proved unworkable, but Tuthill recognized the value of the engine's only practical feature: a small, internal gear pump which injected fuel oil directly into the truck boiler. Tuthill refined the pump design and marketed it to companies that produced oil-fired boilers for use in residential and industrial heating. In 1927 the Tuthill Pump Company (TPC) was formed by James B. Tuthill and Gray B Tuthill to manufacture and sell lube and oil burner pumps. The Tuthill internal gear pump was well accepted and proved itself successful and thus became the foundation for today's Tuthill Corporation.
With this legacy and competency in the fluid transfer product offerings, Tuthill acquired Ossian Engineering Company in 1961 which resulted in the introduction of the Fill-Rite® branded fuel and meter product lines. In 1995 Tuthill Transfer Systems broke ground on their new state-of-the art production facility on Aviation Drive in Fort Wayne, IN. where to this day continues to manufacture world-class products with a commitment to U.S. based manufacturing. In 1998 Tuthill Transfer Systems augmented its core Fill-Rite fuel pump and meter offerings by making another acquisition – the purchase of Fluid Power Products, Inc. (FPP). This product line, now known as Fill-Rite Precision Meters extends the capabilities of fuel pumps by offering highly accurate, weights and measures compatible metering systems for the transfer of a wide range of fuels, liquids, oils, and chemicals.
