Cleveland-based Lincoln Electric last week announced its new partnership with design firm and custom motorcycle shop, Paul Jr. Designs. Founded by Paul Teutul Jr., formerly of Orange County Choppers and star of the television show American Chopper on TLC, the new shop is gearing up for the next season of the reality show by stocking it’s brand new facility with equipment, including Lincoln Electric welders and consumables.
“We are excited to announce our partnership with Paul Jr. Designs and look forward to our products contributing to the success of this new company,” said Phillip Wittke, marketing director for Lincoln Electric. “Paul Jr. Designs shares the same commitment to innovation that has driven the success of Lincoln Electric for the last 115 years. We are happy to be associated with such a visible personality that has influenced so many of America’s small fabricators.”
Paul Jr. Designs partners with companies to design and build custom choppers. Located within 300-feet of the original Orange Country Chopper’s shop, the new shop’s start up will be the focus of next season’s American Chopper: Senior vs. Junior.
As part of the multi-year partnership, Lincoln Electric will be the exclusive welding equipment provider for Paul Jr. Designs’ 7,200-square-foot shop in Newburgh, N.Y.
Lincoln Electric designs, develops and manufactures arc welding products, robotic arc welding systems, plasma and oxyfuel cutting equipment and has a leading global position in the brazing and soldering alloys market.
