Descriptiontext

Bison USA Corp is a privately held US distributor of precision workholding equipment and machine tool accessories, operating as the American subsidiary of the international Bison Group. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in West Chester, Ohio, the company supplies CNC machine shops, precision manufacturers, and metalworking facilities across the United States and Canada through a network of regional distributors supplemented by a direct online store at store.bison-chuck.com.

The product portfolio centers on eight core categories: lathe chucks, power chucks and hydraulic cylinders, magnetic chucks, machine and bench vises, milling fixtures, VDI toolholders, live and solid centers, and spindle tooling and toolposts. These are complemented by a broad spare parts and accessories catalog covering adapter plates, collets (ER, DA, TG series), soft and hard jaws, arbors, pull studs, and mounting hardware. The core offering is sourced from the parent Bison Group, with line extensions brought in via partnerships such as the November 2024 agreement with SAV Magnetics, which added permanent magnetic chucks to the US lineup.

Bison USA monetizes exclusively through hardware sales, with pricing not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market depends on a US and Canadian distributor network, a direct e-commerce channel, and active participation in major industrial trade shows including IMTS, EMO Hannover, and ExpoMaq. The customer base is entirely business-to-business, targeting CNC machining operations and machine shops requiring precision workholding solutions. With a 1-10 employee footprint, the company functions as a focused sales and distribution arm within the Bison Group rather than as an independent manufacturer.
