Custom Metal Fabrication Manufacturing
AMALCO offers a capability and facility in contract metal fabricating / metal fabrication using either the deep draw or hydroform technologies that are difficult to duplicate. Virtually every machine or process needed to produce precision metal formed parts and assemblies can be found under one roof. Some of the manufacturing equipment has been designed and built by and for AMALCO. Being a vertically integrated company our processes minimize costs and give us the control necessary to comply with customers' detailed specifications and stringent delivery requirements.
Our facilities meet the rigid Mil specs and standards required for Government, Aerospace and Military products. As a result, our commercial customers benefit from the same critical standards that allowed us to do defense contracting since 1910.
Amalco's team of qualified engineers work closely with our sales, operations, quality and production personnel in all facets of the business. This team work provides the catalyst for manufacturing the highest quality product at a competitive price, while exceeding customer delivery expectations. Our customers are the key to our success and have provided us the opportunity for growth. We are proud of our technical expertise and product diversity attained over the years in the metal working industry, as well as the opportunity to apply these skills to solve our customers most critical design requirements.
- Amalco's Deep Draw capabilities range in diameter from ½ inch to 24 inches with a maximum depth of 24 inches. (We metal forminghave manufactured some specialty drawn enclosures as deep as 55 inches). Maximum blank size for deep drawing is 48 inches.
- Amalco's Hydroforming capabilities can produce parts up to 15" in diameter & 10" deep. The maximum blank diameter for hydroforming is 21 inches.
- As a Value Added Service to our customers Amalco also performs secondary operations consisting of metal spinning, dip brazing, spot welding, heliarc welding, CNC machining, heat treating, piercing/blanking/forming, painting, anodizing, iriditing and light assembly. These services offer customers contract metal forming capabilities designed to minimize lead times and reduce costs. All manufacturing processes, as well as tool/die design, engineering, design services and prototyping are performed at this location in Mountainside NJ.
Let Amalco solve your most difficult metal forming problems with either custom solutions or with one of our more standard product offerings. For over 100 years Amalco has been forming metals either by deep drawing, hydroforming or custom fabricating for OEM’s located throughout the world.

Quality System (Conforms to MIL-I-45208)
With our MIL-Grade Quality System 
, our commercial customers enjoy the same critical quality control standards that have allowed us to deliver Defense Department contracted product for many years. Amalco employs the latest technologies in its QC inspection processes, and maintains its own QC Manual focused on a goal of "Zero Defects on All Products Produced".
Economics of Hydroforming & Deep Drawing
Tooling for a hydroformed part is typically less expensive than for a deep drawn part, since only a punch and ring are required. Deep Drawing requires a punch, die, and blank holder. If the part is conducive to hydroforming and relatively small quantities are desired, hydroforming provides a cost effective solution to forming the part.
Call us as early in your design stage as possible so we can help you benefit from the cost, performance, and material advantages of hydroforming and deep drawing.
Seamless Hydroformed & Deep Draw Metal Parts
Seamless metal forming such as hydroforming and Deep Drawing eliminates much of the complexity associated with stamping, welding, and traditional metal fabricating. If seams are welded to prevent leakage, welding requires extra secondary inspections such as pressure testing and X-rays to detect voids and cracks. Where design requirements allow, choose seemless deep drawing and hydroforming over stamping or fabrication.
Check with our Engineering Support as early as possible in your product development, even before designs are finalized. We've been making metal parts in the USA for over 100 years, and have earned a reputation for deep drawing and hydroforming parts other shops declined to quote.

Why do we choose Amalco?
“Amalco offers a 'one-stop shop'. In the past our combustion cones were shipped back and forth between several subcontractors to have them perform different production steps. Amalco performs each of these operations at one facility; thereby, reducing our cone supplier base from three to one. Now, we coordinate inventory and communications with only one cone supplier, which saves us invaluable time and resources.”
