Hoke reaches ‘zero defects’ milestone in US Government supply

Hoke has announced reaching a milestone in the USA during 2002 by achieving a ‘Zero Defects’ record over a total of 1200 government ‘GSI’ and ‘Non-GSI’ shipments dating back to 1993.

Designated as a ‘Preferred Supplier’ by the Defense Logistics Agency for the last three years, Hoke credits its on-going quality system improvements to their evolution from an ‘inspection / detection’ based process to one of ‘quality prevention’ by adopting new practices such as statistical process control, design of experiments, strategic process checks, delegated inspection representatives and supplier certification.

Hoke produces Gyrolok® compression tube fittings and instrumentation ball, plug, metering and cylinder valves, cylinders and manifolds for the chemical, petrochemical, oil and gas, industrial, government and OEM instrumentation markets.
