RAW METAL FORMCO WORKS WITH

We specialize in fabricating products from a diverse range of metals, each selected for its specific properties to meet the demands of various industries and applications. Our facility is equipped to handle all grades and tempers, ensuring that your parts are made from the most suitable materials.

Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility can work with:

  • Stainless Steel: Renowned for its exceptional resistance to corrosion and high strength, stainless steel is the material of choice for applications requiring longevity and resilience.
  • Spring Steels: Ideal for components that must maintain their shape under stress, spring steels provide excellent elasticity and toughness.
  • Low-Carbon Steels: Valued for their workability and weldability, low-carbon steels are versatile and widely used in numerous industrial applications.
  • Aluminum: Combining light weight, strength, and corrosion resistance, aluminum is perfect for structural applications and those requiring high conductivity.
  • Brass: Known for its excellent machinability and aesthetic appeal, brass is often used in decorative parts and electrical fittings.
  • Copper: With unmatched electrical and thermal conductivity, copper is essential for manufacturing components that require efficient energy transfer.
  • Nickel Silver: Despite its name, nickel silver contains no silver but offers a bright, corrosion-resistant finish, making it ideal for decorative and functional applications.
  • Beryllium Copper: This material’s high strength and non-sparking properties make it invaluable in hazardous environments where safety is paramount.
  • Phosphor Bronze: Phosphor bronze offers superior resistance to fatigue and corrosion, particularly in marine conditions, making it ideal for springs and electrical connectors.
  • Pre-Plated Metals: These metals come with a protective and decorative finish, streamlining the production process by eliminating the need for post-fabrication plating.
  • Skived Metals/Poly-Gage (Dual Gage): We’re proud to offer in-house skiving services, enabling us to precisely reduce metal thickness and enhance material flexibility for your specific application needs.
