Special Devices Inc. in Moorpark, which manufactures pyrotechnic devices for the aerospace and automotive industries, reached an agreement to sell its subsidiary Scot Inc. to J.F. Lehman & Co., an investor group based in New York.

“Proceeds from the sale will be used to substantially reduce SDI’s senior bank borrowings,” said Thomas W. Cresante, president and CEO.
