Services
Bespoke Radiators
We design and manufacture custom radiators using alloy materials for enhanced thermal efficiency and corrosion resistance. Our solutions cater to both road and competition vehicles, with exact specifications replicated from original manufacturers or tailored to unique applications. Clients benefit from improved cooling performance and lightweight construction suited to high-power engines.
Intercooler Design
Our intercooler services include custom design, manufacture, and installation with optimized core dimensions and inlet/outlet positioning. Using aircraft-grade aluminium and pressure-tested construction, we deliver temperature reductions of up to 40C while maintaining compatibility with turbocharger boost pressures. This ensures enhanced throttle response and engine performance for motorsport applications.
Steel Fabrications
We provide precision steel fabrication for structural and performance components including roll cages, seat subframes, and industrial pipework. Our TIG welding expertise and material certification guarantee durability and safety compliance. Services cover both batch production and one-off designs for motorsport, marine, and commercial sectors.
Aluminium Fabrications
Specialist aluminium fabrication services create lightweight yet robust components for vehicle performance upgrades. We produce fuel tanks, swirl pots, and structural parts using aerospace-grade materials. Each product undergoes pressure testing and dimensional verification to meet exact client specifications while maintaining thermal efficiency.
Paddock Equipment
We manufacture specialist motorsport support equipment including quick-lift jacks, air bottle trolleys, and tyre racks. These custom-built solutions prioritise durability and functionality for trackside use. All equipment is engineered to withstand demanding environments while improving pit crew efficiency during racing events.
