Material Expertise: From Chassis to Powertrain

Selecting the correct material is critical for automotive performance, balancing the need for weight reduction with structural integrity and thermal resistance. We stock a wide range of certified materials to meet the rigorous demands of European automotive standards and motorsport regulations. Our facility is equipped to handle everything from standard alloys to exotic superalloys, ensuring your custom aluminum car parts and powertrain components perform exactly as engineered.

Lightweight Alloys: Aluminum 7075-T6 & 6061

For suspension arms, brackets, and chassis components, weight savings are paramount. We extensively use Aluminum 7075-T6, known for its high strength-to-weight ratio, making it the standard for competitive racing applications. For more general structural parts, our Aluminum 6061 machining capabilities offer excellent corrosion resistance and weldability, providing a cost-effective solution for brackets and housings without sacrificing quality.

High-Temp Superalloys: Inconel & Titanium

When components face extreme heat and stress, such as in exhaust systems or valve trains, standard metals often fail. We specialize in Titanium machining for motorsport, utilizing Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V) and Inconel. These materials are essential for manufacturing valve retainers and turbocharger components that must withstand high temperatures while minimizing reciprocating mass. Learn more about our Titanium material properties to see how we handle these difficult-to-machine alloys.
