Ashcroft

Ashcroft boasts a 170+ year legacy as a pioneer in precision measurement, founded by Edward Ashcroft in 1852 to advance safe steam power operations. The brand revolutionized industrial measurement with early innovations like Bourdon tube-based gauges and later introduced industry-first designs such as phenolic instrument housings and ±0.25% FS precision test gauges. Today, part of a global network serving 80+ countries, Ashcroft specializes in heavy-duty solutions for harsh industrial environments—including chemical processing, power generation, oil & gas, HVAC and pharmaceutical sectors. Its products combine rigorous safety compliance (ISO, ASME, NIST) with field-proven durability, delivering accurate, low-maintenance measurement and control to protect personnel, equipment and process integrity. Unlike generic instrumentation brands, Ashcroft focuses on application-specific engineering, offering custom-engineered solutions and end-to-end lifecycle support to address unique challenges in extreme industrial conditions.
