At Owens we machine stainless, brass, bronze, nickel, aluminum, plastic, titanium as well as many other standard and specialty metals. What is your lead time? Our lead time depends on quite a few factors. We can respond rapidly to requirements for existing product. New parts take a little longer. Do you have outside processes available locally? We have plating, heat treat, drylube and passivate all done locally. We still send work out to qualified sources in other areas or states to satisfy customer requirements.
