Sanitary & Food-Grade Stainless Steel Fabrication

Food-contact hoppers, chutes, tanks, conveyor frames, guarding, and washdown structures in 304 and 316L — TIG welded crevice-free, ground flush, polished to a sanitary finish, and passivated before it leaves the floor.

01 · What we build

Built for washdown

01

Hoppers & chutes

Self-draining transitions with radiused internal corners and blended welds, sized from your flow model and discharge hardware.

02

Tanks & vessels

Rolled and welded bodies with sanitary fittings, sight ports, and jacketed or insulated options for process service.

03

Conveyor frames & guarding

Tube and formed-channel frames, belt supports, and interlock-ready guard panels that break down for cleaning.

04

Machine bases & skids

Sealed-member frames on sanitary leveling feet, drilled for your drives, gearboxes, and pump packages.

05

Tables & work surfaces

Inspection and packing stations with rolled edges, undershelves, and cutouts for scales, chutes, and bins.

06

Washdown enclosures

Sloped-top NEMA 4X boxes and operator stations in 316, wired to UL 508A when the panel is ours too.

Engineer questions

Don't see yours? Send your specs or call (619) 708-6716.

Do you fabricate to 3-A sanitary design principles?

Yes. We build to 3-A design intent — continuous crevice-free welds ground flush, radiused internal corners, sloped surfaces that self-drain, no hollow unsealed members, and hardware that disassembles for cleaning. Tell us the standard or plant spec you're held to and we'll confirm each detail against your print before quoting.

What surface finish can you hold for washdown service?

Our standard food-contact finish is a #4 mechanical polish at roughly 32 µin Ra, blended across welds so there's no shadow at the seam. We also supply bead-blast, 2B mill finish, and electropolished surfaces where a lower Ra or a passive layer is specified.

Do you passivate, and do you document it?

Yes. Fabricated parts are cleaned and passivated per ASTM A967 using citric or nitric chemistry, and we can supply the passivation record along with material certifications for the plate and tube used on your job.

Can you supply a complete assembly, not just the metal?

Yes. We combine sanitary fabrication with mechanical assembly, drives, and UL 508A washdown control panels — so a hopper, conveyor, or skid arrives wired, functionally tested, and documented as one deliverable.
