Brighton-Best traces its history to a Cincinnati storefront factory, which opened in 1925 as Brighton Screw Co.

Stanley Sevell and Rosenstein founded Best Socket Screw Co. in New York City in 1965. They formed the privately owned Brighton-Best Socket Screw in 1968 when they acquired Brighton Screw Co. and merged the names. Brighton-Best grew to a major supplier of inch and metric hexagon alloy socket screws to 6,000 distributors.

Brighton-Best once did actual manufacturing of socket screws in Connecticut.
