Component Shapes

Automotive Components
We manufacture a range of components for the auto electrical industry manufactured in various metals and finishes. this includes steel, copper, aluminium and bi-metallic components.

Applications range from silver plated contacts, copper and aluminium distributor terminals, alternator diode bases, to steel valve rotators.

Hexagonal Shaped Components
These are manufactured from steel or copper and include stepped diameters, weld rings, and threaded or knurled shanks.
Components are stud based for the semiconductor industry.

 

 

   
 

   

Electrical Components
Electrical components include cable connectors, capacitor rods and fuse caps all manufactured in copper for various applications in the electrical industry. These provide a good illustration of the different size and shape capabilities of the cold forming process.

Flanged T-Shape Components
Cylindrical T shaped components vary in size, featuring stepped diameters, traverse holes, centre bores, all dependant upon the application for which they are required.

Tube Type Components
Shown here are just a selection of the many shapes and sizes of copper tube type components that we manufacture. These components are various types of injector sleeves for commercial trucks, marine and power generation diesel engine. Other materials can be used to manufacture components depending on the application.

 

Cylindrical Components
Cylindrical components range in size and shapes with undercuts and flanges produced during the cold forming processes, a range of secondary operations can provide other details if required.

Syncro Rings
Cold formed in steel on our orbital forging press, these dog toothed syncro rings are used in automotive gearboxes and can be manufactured in diameters to suit the particular application.

Spark Plug Components
Floform have for many years manufactured the copper cored electrodes used by most of the worlds leading manufacturers of spark plugs. This concept of bi-metallic manufacturing of components is a Floform speciality.
