By 1860, at the dawn of the Civil War, the Bridgewater Iron Company was one of the largest in the country, specializing in heavy castings and forgings, including key parts for the United States Navy, including the famous USS Monitor and the USS New Ironsides iron-clad warships, and the Pacific Mail Steamship Company.
The list of ships with parts made at Bridgewater include the USS Monitor, the USS New Ironsides and much of the fleet of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company.
