Founded in 1981, Protect-O-Cap is a leading manufacturer of industrial-strength hammer caps for the North American residential and commercial construction markets. Kevin Oa??Rourke currently manages the firm, but it was his father, Jerry, who founded the company in the Carolinas. Jerry had years of experience managing a specialty nail manufacturing company, and it was his entrepreneurial vision that led to the creation of the Protect-O-Cap business. When Gerald retired, his oldest son, Kevin, came in to build upon the firma??s successes and keep a focus on the company values involving product quality and customer service. With the headquarters currently rooted in Rock Hill, South Carolina, Protect-O-Cap continues to grow by consistently delivering a high quality product at a fair price.
