Materials
Select your materials from an extensive, ex-stock, range of materials that meet your needs for technically advanced application requirements.
Whether you are considering a motorsport application that requires magnesium or an aerospace application that requires titanium, Smiths High Performance can supply you with the material specification to meet your needs. Selecting from our range of special steels, nickel alloys, high strength alloys or commercial non-ferrous metals and engineering plastics means almost any material requirement can be delivered to you and with very short lead times. Requests for alternative or new materials are also achievable and many of the materials can be supplied with full certification. 
Material quality remains at the heart of our sourcing policy and we work with all of our suppliers to ensure very high standards of material quality are met and maintained. Repeatable, high performance is our objective in everything we do.
Additional Processing and Testing
Benefit from having your materials processed before delivery. Your materials can be supplied in varying sizes, lengths, finishes and coatings that are already one step closer to your finished component. You can avoid the initial component processing by having your raw materials processed by our lathes, presses and vertical bandsaws to provide you with components that are ready for a single final machining operation.
You can also benefit from having your materials heat treated prior to delivery. This can be arranged for you through our supply partner network of external heat treatment service providers that offer a complete range of heat treatment operations.
If you require your materials to be tested then take advantage of our in-house, UKAS accredited, testing laboratory that is staffed by qualified metallurgists. They will undertake specific product sampling and testing programmes as well as one-off material testing projects that aim to avoid all material quality problems by prevention rather than detection
