We stock most of the popular sizes of Sections, Sheet, Plate and Tube in Aluminium, Brass, Copper, Mild Steel and Stainless Steel.
These can be supplied cut to size or in full lengths or sheets.
We supply a large range of customers from DIY to large corporations such as Denel.
In 2000 we purchased our first AbrasiveWaterjet Profiling machine and in 2005 we purchased a 4 Kw Laser Machine.
This machine has a tube cutting attachment which enables us to profile tubing up to 400mm dia x 3,5 mtr long.
In 2008 we purchased our second Waterjet Machine with the Tilt a Jet feature which enables us to produce taper free components on request.
The Waterjet machines use Garnet grit and high pressure water as a cutting medium and therefore there is no heat to affect the physical properties of the material.
We have a 100 ton press brake with a 3 mtr bed which enables us to do straight forward bending.
