Copper Alloys Ltd specialises in manufacturing super high strength corrosion-resistant metals, and has recently released a range of highly developed alloys. These will be of interest to engineers looking to expand the life of equipment in corrosive environments or increase the ability of equipment to withstand impact shocks.
All alloys can be manufactured to various Class and Grade requirements within these specifications, with non-destructive testing by ultrasonic, dye penetrant or X-ray inspection.
Quite simply, we specialise in the difficult.
Once the drawings for a component have been completed, we support equipment producers and end users in the production of specialist marine defence materials and customised designs.
Normally the geometry is considered at the material selection stage and in addition to manufacturing the metal, we also machine to print, as well as project manage whole sets of components and down-stream activities.
Our engineers have gained extensive experience in the conversion of raw material into finished components, with a full range of machining capability and a deep understanding of the total quality management required to service the industry at the highest level.
Copper Alloys Ltd has an industry leading approach to quality management and, coupled with our unique approach to manufacturing components and forgings from speciality metals.
Copper Alloys Ltd has successfully supplied critical items on numerous submarine projects, including:
Astute class
Collins class
Victoria class
Trafalgar class
Vanguard class
S-80 class
Barracuda class
Virginia class
Talk to our metallurgists about the specific operational environment, and your desired properties, and they will advise the best material. Please visit the Alloy Selector for our full range where you can start to consider the possibilities.
Design engineers often present us with a combination of material performance requirements that they find to be unavailable. By working with us at the design stage, we can either advise suitable materials or develop bespoke solutions and, in many instances, we have pushed the boundaries of performance of copper-based marine defence alloys.
Achieve the optimal balance of efficiency and performance by discussing your marine defence material requirements with a member of our highly qualified team.
Elite Marine Alloy Specialists
We are pleased to present our range of advanced wrought cupro-nickel alloys with outstanding resistance to sea-water corrosion combined with a spectrum of high mechanical properties.
The combination of benefits for engineers working with Copper Alloys Ltd is unique. There are many ways that we can add value to your supply chain:
Over 100 years of combined metallurgical and industrial knowledge within the technical team to help you select the correct material and maximise the mechanical properties for your application.
Eliminating manufacturing risk by allowing Copper Alloys Ltd to conduct the machining on fully machined components.
The key difference is that Copper Alloys Ltd is small enough to care. The entire production and management teams take pride in their work and will go the extra mile to ensure that material or component supply is not the thing that lets you down.
Copper Alloys Ltd are focused on what means most to our customers. Our approach to complete quality management enables us to create and supply material and components that will provide the best value throughout the lifetime of the equipment.
The systems of control at Copper Alloys Ltd guarantee repeatability of process and performance.
Long-term agreements
The ability to fix prices for a set period, to allow stability in purchasing and administration costs.
Dedicated stock
Copper Alloys Ltd is able to carry stock specific to customers' needs, which helps eliminate supply problems due to rapidly changing demand requirements.
Delivery
We understand the importance of meeting our delivery commitments.
Scrap Recycling
Let Copper Alloys Ltd carry out your finish-machining to reduce risk and ensure that the full value of the swarf results in reduced cost to you.
Our team is personally committed to meeting agreed delivery dates. Much resource has gone into the development of a Quality Management System to ensure that nothing is left to chance and all commitments are realistic.
Throughout our history supporting the marine defence industry, we have attained full approvals from navies around the world and we've worked directly with some of the most advanced engineering organisations, many of which are household names.
Copper Alloys Ltd continues to enhance its reputation by taking on ever more technically-demanding projects, meeting the demands of the marketplace.
BSI Quality Register
Copper Alloys Ltd is certified by the BSI Quality Register to ISO 9001:2015 AS9100 Revision D, which is the highest level of approval for a manufacturer.
