A machine operative at Inlex Locking will retire after more than four decades in the threadlocking and sealing industry.
Steve Henshall (pictured left) has worked in threadlocking and sealing for 46 years, having spent 34 years at PSM Fasteners before joining Inlex in Wolverhampton, part of the Anochrome Group, 12 years ago.
He will reflect on his lengthy career on 1 May, two weeks before his 70th birthday.
“When I was made redundant at the age of 58, I thought I was finished and that I’d never work again. I was distraught. But Inlex gave me a chance and I’ve had 12 brilliant years here. It’s a great company to work for, and I’m sad to say goodbye to the people, as I’ve always enjoyed the banter,” said Henshall.
Wayne Murphy (pictured right), Operations Manager, added: “We invited Steve in for one day initially for advice on a machine, but he made a good impression and we could see he cared, so we offered him a job. We wish him all the very best as he embarks on this next chapter in his life.”
Part of the Anochrome Group, Inlex provides a comprehensive range of threadlocking and sealant products for today’s high-tech fastening applications, serving a variety of sectors including automotive, off-highway and construction.
