The Mechanical Fabric Company is a historic factory complex on Cromwell and Sprague Streets in Providence, Rhode Island. It consists of six brick buildings, arranged in roughly parallel rows in a city block bounded by Cromwell, Sprague, and Dexter Streets, and Elmwood Avenue. They were built between 1891 and about 1925. The Mechanical Fabric Company was a major player in the city's rubber industry, and was particularly notable as the site of innovations in the development and manufacture of pneumatic bicycle tires.

The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
