About Marathon Special Products
Marathon Special Products has manufactured terminal blocks for utility and industrial markets since the 1930s, growing into a recognized industry leader for power distribution blocks in North America by 1955. The company's product line covers terminal blocks, power distribution blocks, and fuse holders used across electrical panel building and utility infrastructure.
Marathon became the first terminal block manufacturer in North America to achieve ISO 9002 certification in February 1994, later adding ISO 9001 certification in 2003, reflecting a long-standing focus on manufacturing consistency. The company's Bowling Green, Ohio facility houses engineering, manufacturing, and customer service operations, with in-house molding, stamping, and assembly capabilities that are uncommon among competitors in this space.
Marathon Special Products was acquired by Regal Beloit Corporation in 1997 and operates today as part of Regal Rexnord Corporation, continuing to supply terminal blocks and power distribution products across North America. ChatMRO indexes the Marathon catalog so buyers can search by block type, amperage rating, or fuse holder style to find matching parts.
