Metallurgy and Steel Plants
This is the core of our work. Equipment for strip processing lines and the consumable parts those lines wear out, supplied to plants that measure downtime in tonnes rather than hours.
Pain Points In Metallurgy and Steel
What steel plants call us about.
Acid And Tank Time
An intact oxide layer makes the pickling section slow and expensive. A scale breaker in front of the tanks fractures the scale and corrects shape in one pass.
Flatness That Returns
Edge wave and centre buckle come back a few hundred tonnes after a roll change, usually because the cassette support side is worn rather than the work rolls.
Spare Parts Without Drawings
When the original line builder no longer supplies a roll or cassette, production depends on someone reverse engineering it correctly.
What Buyers In This Sector Need
- Equipment configured to an existing line rather than a catalogue
- Spare parts made to the original drawing with documented hardness
- A supplier who answers technical questions within a day
- Repeat supply so a roll set is never the reason a line stops
Typical Application Scenarios
- Push pull and continuous pickling lines
- Continuous hot dip galvanizing lines
- Colour coating and prepainted steel lines
- Cold rolling and cut to length operations

Can you work on a line built by another supplier?
Yes, that is most of what we do. Send the line layout or the part drawing and we work from what is installed.
Which lines do you have most experience with?
Pickling, galvanizing and colour coating lines, where we have supplied tension levelers and scale breakers, plus the cassettes and rolls inside them.
Do you handle installation?
We undertake entire project engineering from design to installation and commissioning where the customer wants it, and our after sales team covers installation guidance and personnel training.
How do you price a spare parts programme?
From your annual consumption. Repeat sets to the same drawing are priced as a programme rather than as one off orders.
Can you supply urgently when a line is down?
Tell us it is a line down situation in the first message. Our team supports urgent enquiries around the clock and we prioritise accordingly.
