What we do
We turn carbon steel into finished fabricated products. Cut, punched, formed, welded and assembled in one building in Pennsylvania.
Most shops send work out. We do not. Cutting, punching, forming, welding and assembly all happen on the same floor, which is why our lead times hold and our quotes come back fast.
