Sheet Metal
Sheet metal is metal in the form of thin, broad sheets. Sheet metal itself is seldom a finished product. Rather, manufacturers use it to create many different products in a wide range of industries. Some of these include aerospace, automotive, communication, computer, construction, electronics, food processing and storage, military, and pharmaceuticals.
Products Produced
Sheet metal fabrication service providers can use their capabilities to create a wide variety of parts and products. Examples of some of these parts and products include metal furniture (stainless steel storage units, metal cabinets, steel shelving, etc.), stairwell railings, fencing and cages, HVAC industry parts (ductwork, grating, venting, etc.), lighting hoods, scissors, structural elements (stainless steel bridge skeletons, aircraft framework, etc.), and silverware.
Materials
Two of the most common metal materials used to create precision sheet metal are stainless steel and aluminum. Stainless steel is valued as sheet metal because stainless steel provides strength, durability, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning. These qualities prove valuable in harsh environments and to the manufacturing, food processing, and storage industries.
Aluminum is popular because it offers compressive strength, tensile strength, and lightness. Aluminum sheet metal products have applications in aerospace, automotive manufacturing and other transportation industries, and the packaging, construction, food and beverage, music, household, and electronics industries, among others. Other metals used to create sheet metal include brass, copper, nickel, titanium and, for specialty applications, gold, silver, and platinum.
We are specialists in bespoke and custom metal fabrication. Our approach involves taking each order as an individual project, and we’ll consult, advise, help plan and then create a CAD (computer aided design) plan, so you can be sure we will deliver the tailored solution you need.
An understanding of aesthetic style, the fundamentals of practicality, and the necessity of safety in design and installation, are all factors that allow us to deliver a final product of the highest quality, reflective of our reputation and experience.
