Carpenter Technology Corporation makes a vast array of powder and wrought specialty alloys suitable for automotive applications. Our engineered ceramic & metal parts-making capabilities are ready to meet most any design challenge. And we’re always researching new ways to deliver the materials to make next generation designs possible.

Automotive design engineers demand the most dependable materials with the properties required for critical automotive applications. These materials must also provide the in-service characteristics that give you the competitive edge. Carpenter has consistently offered designers materials that have resulted in improved product reliability, higher performance levels, automotive system durability, and efficient component production.

Carpenter’s production capabilities are backed by an industry leading technical assistance program. Carpenter engineers can assist automotive design engineers in evaluating material properties, providing information on existing alloys, and developing new products to meet market needs. Regional metallurgists and application engineers can work closely with customers at their facilities to find solutions to production challenges.

In addition, Carpenter’s commitment to research and development continues to produce new and enhanced products that meet the increasingly stringent demands of the automotive market.

And to keep up with the ever more demanding automotive technology, Carpenter has invested in new engineered parts-forming capabilities. We supply manufacturers with a variety of sophisticated, custom parts made from metals and ceramics. These components, parts and materials can meet needs for wear resistance, strength, tight tolerances, and unusual shapes.

Depending on the application, specialty alloys, titanium and other advanced materials can be considered for a variety of automotive applications.

• Engine components, such as fuel injectors, intake and exhaust valves, spring retainers, connecting rods, turbocharger bolts, power steering pumps and fuel shaft pumps, valve springs
  
• Exhaust system components, such as exhaust manifold bolts, hangers, tail pipes, catalytic converters, tubing, EGR pinlets and oxygen sensor parts
  
• Safety systems, such as airbag components, anti-lock braking systems, brake actuators, sensors, and steering linkage
  
• Frame and body parts, such as engine mounts, fasteners, suspension springs, drive shafts, rivets, wheel bolts and antenna base fittings
  
• Instrumentation and control systems, such as armatures, instrument gauge wire, solenoids, speedometer shafts, and switching devices
