01Industrial component partner
Specialist parts. Not shelf parts.
Precision coilingWire formingLaser weldingValue add
Most industrial requirements that reach SCS start where the catalogue stops: an awkward envelope, a difficult material, a geometry that has to do two jobs at once. Coiling, wire forming and value-added processes come together to turn that requirement into a controlled, repeatable component. Alongside that custom work, SCS has manufactured stainless steel construction wall ties in Limerick since 1979, CE certified and supplied with a Declaration of Performance to customers in 26 countries.
SCS supplies components and subassemblies. Equipment design, performance and certification responsibility remain customer-defined.
02Industrial components
Engineered around the requirement
SCS produces customer-defined spring, coil, wire form and subassembly geometries for specialist industrial equipment and systems.
Extension & Torsion Springs
Hook-ended and leg-formed springs for return, tension and rotational requirements.
Construction Wall Ties
Austenitic stainless cavity wall ties, made in Limerick since 1979. CE certified with a Declaration of Performance.
Formed Wire Components
2D and 3D wire forms: clips, hooks, links, rings and customer-defined shapes.
Welded Subassemblies
Laser-welded wire and coil assemblies bringing several elements into one controlled part.
05Materials & complementary processes
Material is a decision, not a default
Material choice depends on the intended function, process route and customer specification, presented as a capability set rather than a claim that every material suits every component. Behind that sit long-term relationships with the world's leading certified medical, industrial and aerospace material suppliers, a dual-source strategy on critical raw materials so a long-life programme never depends on a single mill, and strategic safety stock on key alloys and high-running materials.
