History

In 1941, Aircraft and Marine Products (AMP) was founded to make solderless electrical connections for quick and removable wire connections used for aircraft and ships. After the war time boom, the company had to adapt to the post-war economy, and in 1956, the name of the company was changed to AMP Incorporated when it re-incorporated. In 1999, Tyco International acquired AMP Incorporated.
