Midland-Ross Co. was an American steel, aerospace products, electronics, and automobile components manufacturer which existed from 1894 to 1986. Founded as Parish & Bingham, a manufacturer of steel components for bicycles, streetcars, and horse-drawn wagons, it merged with the Detroit Pressed Steel Co. in 1923 to form the Midland Steel Products Co. It then merged with the J. O. Ross Engineering Co. in 1957 to form Midland-Ross. A major downturn in the automobile industry in the early 1980s led the company to spin off most of its divisions, leaving it with just aerospace, electronics, small metal castings, and thermal processes. It was purchased and dismantled by Forstmann Little & Company in 1986.
