It arose as a settlement at the Verkhne-Serginsky ironworks , founded by Nikita Nikitich Demidov on the Sergey River. The building permit was granted by the Berg College on September 20, 1740. Initially, the plant was designed with a fortified wall to protect it from raids by the Bashkirs, but the fortress was never built. In 1742, they began to build a dam and build two hammer factories with six rascals. In 1770, the factory had 2 hammer factories with 6 hammers and 12 horns and a saw mill with 2 frames; a forge with 4 horns; 2 metalwork factories, where we made scales, weights and other tools. Finished products were shipped to European Russia from the Ufa pier, equipped near the confluence of the Serga River and the Ufa River. There were 522 artisans at the factory.

During the years of the uprising led by E.I. Pugachev, the plant was stopped on January 16, 1774 and was soon plundered, although the population did not offer resistance to the rebels. In March of that year, he was occupied by government troops. According to the will of N. N. Demidov, Serginsky factories went to his second son Ivan in 1758, who owned them until May 15, 1789, when he sold all his mining estate to the Moscow merchant Mikhail Pavlovich Gubin, who introduced iron smelting at the plant. Built and November 13, 1791, a blast furnace was put into operation. By 1797, there were 781 artisans and workers behind the plant; there were more than 4 thousand ascribed peasants, together with the Nizhne-Serginsky factory. In the XIX century. the financial situation of the plant owners worsened, and on August 25, 1841, the government took Serginsko- Ufaleyskie factories into state supervision. However, the owners were able to pay off creditors and return the district from the custody of the state.

In 1881, the district of Serginsko-Ufaleysky factories changed their owners, with their funds re-equipment of the enterprise began. In 1884, the open-hearth furnace , one of the first in Russia, was built at the plant. In 1885, a mill was installed for rolling small-grade iron. In 1887, electric lighting was introduced at the plant and in the village. Since 1886, the plant began to make a profit. As a result of the reconstruction, the volume of output increased. In 1900, 1954 workers were employed in factory works; In total, about 8 thousand people lived in the factory village. In 1897, a three-altar stone church was erected in honor of the Entry into the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In 1903-1904 a blast furnace was rebuilt, wire and wire products were organized.

After the October Revolution, the plant was nationalized on December 27, 1917, and stopped in the midst of the Civil War in the summer of 1918. After the Civil War, the plant was dilapidated. Due to the lack of ore and fuel, blast furnace and iron production did not resume anymore. Only the drawing and nailing workshops were commissioned, the plant switched to the production of carved and forged nails, and acted as the wire-nailing workshop of the Nizhne-Serginsky plant. On November 7, 1931, the plant was redesigned for the production of drilling equipment for the oil and gas industry. The status of an urban-type settlement has been since 1938.
