About Us


At AFP, we believe commitment to quality begins with people, a major prerequisite for the successful application of customer service, value and excellence. Aerox Fluid Power is committed to providing the highest quality in everything we do that contacts or influences our customers. Aerox Fluid Power and Aerox Aviation Oxygen Systems manufactures oxygen distribution assemblies and components designed to work together to form an integral part of any life support system.

Founded in 1949, Fluid Power, Inc. began overhauling high altitude, oxygen-breathing apparatus in support of the Armed Forces during the 1950-1953 Korean War. By 1957, FPI was a Government-qualified manufacturer of this sophisticated oxygen equipment. In the 1960's and 1970's, FPI also manufactured Compressed Air Breathing Apparatus for the U.S. Chemical Corp used at NIKE missile sites. The commercial version of this twin cylinder backpack became the CABA® unit known to fire departments and city service departments.

Today, as part of the Aerox Aerospace Group, we are one of the leading manufacturers of high pressure, high altitude oxygen breathing components and portable systems. Aerox Fluid Power has been an approved prime contractor to the US Military for nearly 60 years and a qualified supplier to major airframe manufacturers, airlines and leading systems integrators worldwide.
