Formed at the beginning of the 20th century, Imperial Eastman originated the now familiar compression nut & sleeve design fitting.  This style fitting became the starting block for the global recognition of the Imperial Eastman name, and indeed the trademark Diamond “I” Logo is regarded as the very benchmark of quality that many users specify in today’s ever increasing market place.

Since their inception in 1907, Imperial Eastman has developed a vast range of fittings; tubing and tube related tooling, all easily recognisable by the familiar Diamond “I” logo.  In 1996 Imperial Eastman was bought by Mark IV Industrial, (a division of the Dayco Industries group), and as a result was renamed Dayco Imperial.  The manufacturing facilities of Imperial Eastman, along with the Diamond “I” logo, has been retained by Dayco, and is still a very important part of the product range manufactured today.  For almost a century, the Imperial brand name and logo has been recognised as a product of extremely high quality, and which despite competition from others trying to match its excellent characteristics, is still unrivalled today.
