Precision engineering is the backbone of many high-tech industries, requiring the manufacture of complex, highly accurate components with strict tolerances. Whether in aerospace, automotive, medical, electronics or defence, these industries rely on materials that not only meet exacting specifications but also offer reliability, durability and performance consistency.
At P&P Bornmore Metals, we specialise in supplying high-specification metals for precision engineering applications. Our extensive range includes stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, bronzes and nickel alloys, available in various forms such as round bar, hex bar, square bar, flat bar, tube, sheet, plate and fittings. Understanding the unique properties of each material is essential for selecting the right one for your application.
Key Metals for Precision Engineering
Stainless Steel – 303, 304, 316, 17-4 PH
Stainless steel is renowned for its corrosion resistance, strength, and machinability. It can also be heat-treated for enhanced performance, making it an ideal choice for:
· Medical instruments
· Food processing equipment
· Marine applications
· Automotive parts
Aluminum – 6063, 6082
Aluminum alloys offer a lightweight yet high-strength solution with excellent machinability and corrosion resistance. These properties make aluminum a preferred material for:
· Aerospace components
