Although popularly connected to washing machines, the Bendix Corporation itself never actually manufactured that home appliance. In 1936 the company licensed its name to Bendix Home Appliances, another South Bend company, for a 25% stake in the company.[2] Bendix Home Appliances, founded by Judson Sayre, was later sold to Avco Manufacturing Corporation.[3]
