PROFILE |

Kaman makes guitars and military helicopters, but it's the distribution of industrial products that makes the company fly. The company distributes industrial products (about 50% of sales) such as bearings, mechanical and electrical power-transmission, materials-handling, and fluid-power products through more than 200 locations in the US, Canada, and Australia. Kaman's aerospace division makes aerospace components and produces the SH-2G Super Seasprite naval helicopter and the K-MAX aerial truck (designed for repetitive lifting) helicopter. Kaman also makes and sells Ovation, Hamer, and Takamine guitars and distributes musical instruments and accessories. Founder Charles Kaman owns 48% of the company.
