Exposed Structural Steel
RCR Fabrication
RCR Fabrication is locally owned and operated and has been providing high quality custom metal fabrication and installation in Santa Cruz and surrounding counties since 1997. We work in all-metals with stainless steel being our specialty.
Signs
Need a sign? For your business or home? We can make it for you.
Tig Welding (GTAW)
Tig Welding, otherwise known as GTAW, is generally used to weld exotic material like stainless steel, aluminum, copper, titanium and critical welds that must be flawless such as aircraft engine parts. Tig welding offers the user the greatest amount of flexibility to weld the widest range of material.
Repairs and Restorations
At RCR, we have the tools and experience to repair and restore items to "as new" condition. Contact us to see if we can help you with your project.
Powder Coating
Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a "skin". It is usually used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint.
Water Jet Cutting Info
Here at RCR we have put our water jet through it's paces cutting a multitude of different materials, metal being the most common, but also wood, paper, rubber, foam, fiberglass, acrylic, granite, marble, limestone, tool steel, tile and plastic. Pretty much the only things we can't cut are tempered glass, diamonds, and certain types of ceramic.
Welding
Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials, usually metals, by causing fusion, which is distinct from lower temperature metal-joining techniques such as brazing and soldering, which do not melt the base metal. In addition to melting the base metal, a filler material is often added to the joint to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool) that cools to form a joint that can be as strong as the base material.
Machine Shop
From shear to lathe, from press brake to multi-axis CNC machining, our machine shop may be compact, but it can do most anything!
