Wade Engineering began as Iron Founders, quickly developing into general engineers in the late 1950's. At this stage, the company specialized in the manufacture of power transmission equipment, and was a major supplier of vee pulleys and flywheels in New Zealand.
The business was established and operated at premises at what later became Foundry Road, Silverdale. Foundry road is now the busy industrial centre of the Hibiscus Coast area, just north of Auckland. |

With the introduction of electric melting facilities, and total upgrade of the C.N.C machine tool fleet, the work style changed to that of precision component manufacturing.
The management and staff of Wade Engineering are extremely proud of the product which is produced; Sound castings, chemically in spec. Precision machined components, dimensionally in spec. |
