Profile: Our business is centered on a permanent mechanical repair for cast iron and machine parts denoted as 'Metal Locking'. Also known as Metal Stitching, Metalock, Metalace and Crack Repair, this mechanical approach to the repair of vital machine parts was conceived as the solution to the problems of welding or brazing.
The use of Metal Locking has grown in application from small water pumps to enormous turbine generating equipment, from the local gas station to the nation's largest steel mills. No heat is used, thus no stresses are introduced and very little if any post-repair machining is necessary to correct misalignment and warpage. Since there is no heat, Metal Locking repairs can be made in restricted areas where flame or welding arc is prohibited. Repairs are often made on location, without the necessity of major disassembly.
We are capable of performing this service equally well in our shop or yours. We pride ourselves on our ability to reach destinations quickly, often times within 24 hours, and in the most cost-effective manner.
Our on-site machining capabilities suppliment our casting repairs and allow for complete turn-key service. Portable line boring, milling, keyway cutting, boring, journal turning and stress relieving are offered.
