Arrowhead Products Various
Job Description: Arrowhead Products was founded in 1937 as Arrowhead Rubber Company. In 1942, Arrowhead Rubber conceived the idea of rubber coated fabric ducting which gave birth to “Airtron” products. This rapidly became the company’s most important product during WWII.
Arrowhead Rubber was sold to National Motor Bearing in 1944. In 1951, Arrowhead Rubber began designing and producing high-altitude pressure suits called “G.U.S.” (Garment, Upper Stratosphere). The G.U.S. was worn by actor Lee Marvin in a 1959 episode of Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse titled “Man in Orbit.”
