About

Ability Metal – Precision Machined Parts Since 1950

Ability Metal (formerly Ultra Specialties) is able to manufacture the most complex components. With some of the best equipment, technology, and people in the industry today; we are capable of successfully producing very difficult parts that require strict tolerances and technical proficiency in an extremely efficient way.

Proudly Made in the USA

At a time when most products are being made abroad, Ability Metal is proud to manufacture high-quality parts right here in the USA. We strongly believe that our resourcefulness and dedication allows us to remain competitive not only nationally, but globally.

CAD/CAM Capability

Many parts of the production process are guided by our Autodesk FeatureCAM 3D CAD/CAM software which assures precise reproduction of intricate geometries. Seamless integration with our customer’s CAD Systems allows us to import solid models; which increases accuracy and efficiency. Whatever CAD format that you prefer to use we can read or open directly and accurately so that we can quickly modify part models for machinability. With accurate machine simulation, we can prevent costly errors at the machine and greatly reduce on-machine prove-out.

This allows for higher accuracy and reliability while spending less time testing and proving programs. With faster cycle times and higher precision we are able to keep costs down and our customers happy.

Wide Range of Materials

At Ability Metal we produce components made of many different types of materials. This allows us to meet the specialized needs of customers in a long list of industries. Our metallurgical expertise allows us to manufacture parts made of just about any material you require.

We are very familiar with the various types of heat treating and coating options available and the necessary process engineering to meet the goals of our customers. This often times results in us working with our customer’s engineering teams to help design the part for optimal manufacturability thereby reducing cost and improving throughput.

We know that knowledge is power, and this keeps us ahead of the game.

Long-Term Relationships

We look to develop long-term relationships with our customers. We look at the big picture. By not viewing each project separately we are able to provide ourselves and our customer gains towards a sustainable future. At Ability Metal we are committed to our customers and believe the best approach is one founded on honesty and integrity. Our focus is on achieving absolute customer satisfaction.  How do we measure this? Through customer retention, customer surveys and referrals. We go beyond meeting your current needs by building lasting relationships with our clients, a reason our business has grown primarily through customer referrals.

We firmly believe that our technology is only as good as the people utilizing it. Our dedicated workforce includes some of the most talented manufacturing engineers in the industry. Recognizing that our people are by far our greatest asset, we provide them with best-in-class training, facilities, and benefits. Our track record speaks for itself as many of our employees have been with us for over 20 years.
