When appropriate, we engage in joint development programs, expanding your engineering capabilities. Our input and expertise at the design stage often results in advantages including increased purchasing and production economies, simplified assembly, and design improvements for your final components.

Our parent company's position as one of the world's largest DOM mechanical steel tubing producers supports our engineers and qualifies them as experts in designing and selecting the most economical tube for customer specifications. The assistance we provide "from the ground up" begins with material grade alternatives and dimensional recommendations, and continues through part fabrication and design assistance to ensure the best possible product selection at the lowest possible cost.

To match maximum cost efficiency with reliable functional integrity, we evaluate all of the production operations to be performed. Machining, bending, flattening, flaring, punching, welding, or plating, are studied. Concurrently, all service requirements for the application of the finished component such as torsion, tension, compression, internal pressure, fatigue, abrasion and impact, are also taken into account. Detailed analysis leads to specific recommendations for steel grades and dimensions, and clear delineation of the chemical and mechanical properties required.
