Materials We Work With
We have helped our defense industry clients to machine parts, and components made from the following materials:
• Titanium: This material has gained popularity in defense and aerospace industry due to various properties including excellent corrosion resistance, reliability, thermal expansion, strength to weight ratio. Titanium offers excellent machinability, which makes it a popular choice for military air frames, as armors, and various other structural elements.
• Cobalt Chrome: The material is also referred as cobalt chromium. Cobalt chrome is an alloy of chromium and cobalt and is well-known for its excellent specific strength. Our defense industry clients approach us for machining various types of mechanical parts and engine components made from cobalt chrome.
• Nickel Alloys: High quality and strength are requisites of most defense industry applications. Nickel alloys allow us to meet those requirements easily. Nickel alloys are well-known for their chemical and mechanical properties such as low thermal expansion, memory hysteresis, electrical resistance, etc.
• Stainless Steel and Carbon Steel: These are one of the most common materials used in the defense industry. Stainless steel is well-known for its durability, and excellent corrosion resistance. This quality makes it suitable for various harsh work environments. Carbon steel is used for making items that demand less ductility. This may include various types of bayonets, knives, and hand-held instruments used by defense personnel.
o 12L14: This steel alloy comprises small quantities of chromium, molybdenum, nickel, copper, and chromium. 12L14 steel is extensively used for manufacturing numerous defense industry mechanical parts that require close tolerances, and precise machining.
