About Heilind Electronics

Heilind Electronics is one of the world’s leading distributors for interconnect, electromechanical, and sensor products. As the industry’s preeminent distributor, Heilind stocks the largest inventory of connector products in North America. We are franchised for over 150 of the industry’s leading manufacturers, and offer products in over 25 component categories including connectors, relays, sensors, switches, thermal management and circuit protection products, terminal blocks, antennas, wire and cable, wiring accessories, insulation and identification products.

This Business Is More Than Parts

Heilind Electronics was founded upon a simple idea: Focus on the customer with an unwavering commitment to deliver performance, trust, and innovation in every transaction. For over 45 years, these values have not only been at the core of our company and culture, but are engrained in the dedication and integrity of our employees.

Customer service is an attitude at Heilind. We trust our employees to make quick, smart decisions — and our customers trust us to deliver what they need, when they need it.

This distinction has earned us recognition as the #1 electronics distributor seven consecutive times running by Bishop & Associates.  We earned our ranking over our competitors based on breadth of product offering, on-time delivery, sales and technical support, and ease of doing business.

What We Do

How We Do It

Solving Problems, Building Partnerships

Some think distribution is just shipping parts — we know it is all about solving problems. That’s why we listen to your challenges and learn about your business to create customized, predictable supply chain management systems centered upon your individual needs. Our goal is to enhance your supply chain efficiency and develop inventory management programs that become part of your everyday process — just like we’ve done for so many customers. That’s the partnership and trust we strive to deliver each and every day.

Unmatched Inventory

Heilind specializes in and stocks a broad inventory of interconnect, electromechanical, and sensor products from leading manufacturers around the world. Plus, our warehouses are strategically located to make sure we have inventory close to where you need it most. While our line card is impressive, what really differentiates us is our extensive inventory position and ability to deliver product when and where you need it. If you require a connector or sensor solution, Heilind is the specialist you call first.

Nurturing Long-Term Relationships

As a privately-held, family-run company, we have the strength and flexibility to run our business for long-term success rather than short-term gain. Our business is built upon creating deep, trusting relationships — a refreshing attitude that is not found in many businesses today. This family spirit thrives throughout the organization. In a time when employee longevity is measured in months, not years, we have many loyal staff members who have been with us for 10, 20, and even 30+ years. The result is that our customers work with some of the most experienced and knowledgeable people in our industry. In addition to our broad inventory and supply chain management systems, we offer an unmatched level of customer support and category expertise. And, we’ve been told, we deliver that support in a way that makes our customers feel like they’re part of our family, too.
