Services

Aluminum Services

Aluminum Solution / Quench / Age
Wabash utilizes gas-fired continuous and drop bottom batch furnaces in its production operation, allowing us flexibility to process a wide variety of aluminum alloys.

Solution Only
In the event the customer needs to "work" the piece in a post-heat treating operation, Alfe can perform only the solution portion of the heat treat process, allowing the part to be shaped, formed, straightened.

Age Only
Age-only requirements are serviced in our batch-style age ovens.

Gauging/Straightening
Alfe has skilled personnel who can straighten parts to a predetermined specification or to a customer-supplied fixture.

Hardness Testing
A predetermined quantity of the customer's product is tested out of each heat treat batch. Brinell and Rockwell hardness testing is available.

Mechanical Testing
Alfe performs mechanical testing of pre-cast bars and has the capability to cut, turn and pull a specimen from the customer's casting. Tensile, yield and elongation numbers are typically available via such testing.

Complete Certification Documentation
Alfe certifies every batch of product processed, recording heat treat process parameters as well as hardness readings, if applicable. Various standard format certifications are available to our customers.

Transportation
Wabash utilizes a fleet of four tractor-trailers to transport between our facility and our customers' plants. In addition to transporting product within our effective selling region, Alfe also facilitates drop forward shipping to non-customer locations.
