A finished part can look right and still be made from the wrong material. At BestPro, material selection is part of the job from the start—with the specified grade, supply condition and supporting documents considered before machining begins.
Material selected against your drawing, including the specified standard and condition.
Material availability and documentation considered together when sourcing stock.
Required material certificates agreed at quotation stage, before the material is ordered.
Different parts call for different material properties. Strength, weight, corrosion resistance and wear all influence the choice.
We work with a range of metals and engineering plastics, including:
· Aluminium alloys — for lightweight housings, brackets and structural parts.
· Stainless steels — for parts requiring corrosion resistance.
· Carbon and alloy steels — for shafts, pins and components requiring strength or heat treatment.
· Brass and bronze — for fittings, bushings and other machined components.
· Engineering plastics — including POM and UHMW-PE for guides, spacers and wear parts.
Already have a grade specified? Send it with your drawing so we can check availability and the required material documentation.
Material certificates give you a basis for checking the supplied grade and reported properties. Linking those documents to the material used for your order is what makes them useful.
Need an EN 10204 3.1 certificate or additional material testing? Include the requirement with your drawings so we can confirm availability, cost and lead time from the outset.
Send us your drawings, quantities and material requirements. We’ll review material sourcing, machining and the documents needed with delivery.
