Aluminum
A unique combination of properties makes aluminum one of the most versatile engineering and construction materials available. It is light in mass, yet some of its alloys have strengths greater than those of structural steel. It has high resistance to corrosion under most applications. In... Read More
Carbon & Alloy Steel
Carbon steel is an alloy consisting of iron and carbon. Several other elements are allowed in carbon steel, with low maximum percentages. These elements are manganese, with a 1.65% maximum, silicon, with a 0.60% maximum, and copper, with a 0.60% maximum. Other elements may be present in... Read More
Laser Cutting Services
Laser cutting provides the tightest tolerances and most precise cut surface. It produces the smallest heat-affected zone in the metal compared to all other thermal cutting processes, minimizing deformation and part failure. Laser cutting can be used to process sheet and plate in carbon,... Read More
Plasma Cutting Services
O’Neal Steel provides standard and high definition plasma cutting services. Cutting speeds are faster and tolerances are tighter than oxy-fuel cutting; however, the thickness of the metal to be cut is typically limited to a maximum of 1/2". Plasma cutting can be used for carbon, stainless, and... Read More
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a modern alloy developed in the early 1900’s after metallurgists discovered that chromium-iron alloys displayed superior corrosion resistance to carbon steel alloys. The first products using stainless steel were produced in 1908 and the first patents were granted in 1912.... Read More
