Precision CNC Machining for Defense Teams
Defense companies in Union City need parts that are exact, traceable, and compliant. A weapon mount that's out of spec affects reliability in the field. We machine aluminum 7075, 4340 steel, and titanium 6Al-4V to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. We are pursuing ITAR registration and handle controlled technology with proper export controls.
Shop Pursuing ITAR Registration
We are registered with the DDTC under ITAR. Defense and controlled-technology projects are handled by US persons only with proper export procedures.
Mil-Spec Materials
We machine aluminum 7075, 4340 steel, titanium 6Al-4V, and mil-spec alloys with full material certs and heat lot traceability.
Full Traceability
Every part gets a job number with records of material, programs, and operator sign-offs. Your program office can request records at any time.
