Starting in April 1904, Spicer's patented joint was initially manufactured through an arrangement with the Potter Printing Press Company in Plainfield, New Jersey.

[1] In 1910, the company relocated to a site adjacent to the Lehigh Valley Railroad and Bound Brook in South Plainfield, New Jersey.

Production of universal joints was moved to a new plant in Toledo, Ohio, between 1926 and 1928.

[1] The plant in South Plainfield was sold in 1930 and subsequently occupied by a number of different manufacturers, most recently Cornell Dubilier Electronics, Inc.

The plant was documented by the Historic American Engineering Record in 2006 prior to its demolition in 2007-08.
