Sheet Metal Fabrication Capabilities
| Feature | Description |
| Blank Size | 10’ x 20’ (3.05 m x 6.10 m). We accommodate larger part volumes upon request. |
| Sheet Thickness | 0.024” – 0.250” typical. We accommodate thicker or thinner gauges upon request. |
| General Tolerances | For single planes or flat parts, +/- 0.010” on edge to edge, edge to hole, and hole to hole features; +/- 0.010” on bend to edge/hole features. For multi-planed bent parts, +/- 0.030” for hole to hole/edge, edge to edge, and over-formed parts; +/- 1 degree for bend angles. |
| Braking (Hydraulic) | 10’ length, fingers from 3” – 6” |
| Punching | 2″ diameter hole capacity, or larger upon request |
| Welding | Welded edges and seams, weldments, and assemblies |

Sheet Metal Finishes Available
A variety of material finishes are available for an instant online sheet metal quote. If you do not see the material finish combination you are looking for, please send us mail for detail requirements.
| Standard | Minimal post-processing or treatment on parts is done. |
| Bead Blast | The part surface is left with a smooth, matte appearance. |
| Anodize (Type II Or Type III) | Type II creates a corrosion-resistant finish. Sheet metal parts can be anodized in different colors—clear, black, red, and gold are most common—and are usually associated with aluminum. Type III is thicker and creates a wear-resistant layer in addition to the corrosion resistance seen with Type II. |
| Chem Film (Chromate Conversion Coating) | This sheet metal finish provides corrosion resistance and good conductivity properties. Chem film can be used as a base for paint and can leave surfaces yellow or gold. Adds very little thickness, about 0.00001”-0.00004.” |
| Powder Coat | This is a sheet metal fabrication process where powdered paint is sprayed onto a part that is then baked in an oven. This creates a strong, wear- and corrosion-resistant layer that is more durable than standard painting methods. A wide variety of colors are available to create the desired aesthetic. |
| Electroless Nickel Plating | A sheet metal fabrication process that provides uniform nickel coating which offers protection from corrosion, oxidation, and wear on irregular surfaces. The finished part will be brighter. |
| Gold Plating | Gold Plating provides good corrosion and tarnish resistance with excellent solderability. |
| Silver Plating | Silver offers high solderability and electrical conductivity but is susceptible to tarnish on sheet metal parts. |
