When America entered WW2, our aircraft engines had a fatal flaw—bearings that melted at high altitude. While the British bought Swedish steel through U-boat waters, a small company in Canton, Ohio was secretly reinventing metallurgy itself. This is the untold story of how Timken developed steel that could survive 650°F temperatures, saved thousands of pilot lives, and enabled the B-29 Superfortress missions that ended the Pacific War. From failed bearings killing RAF pilots to Dr. Charles Cook's revolutionary molybdenum formula, discover the industrial miracle that turned American air power from vulnerable to unstoppable.
