Trusted and Reliable Solutions Provider

Our Range
Engineering Metals

At Kormax, our dedicated metallurgical team stands ready to guide in selecting the optimal material for your product’s operational requirements. But we don’t stop there; we also offer insights into the best casting processes tailored to your chosen material.

Alloys are created by blending a base metal like iron, copper or aluminium with various additives. Even in small quantities, these additives can significantly alter the properties of the metal.

We understand the importance of considering material properties such as melting point, thermal characteristics, solidification nature and fluidity when selecting a casting process. With our expertise, rest assured that your component’s performance will be optimised from the initial design phase to the final product.

Global Top-Tier Foundry Facilities

Kormax collaborates with a select group of international producers to source high-quality engineering materials for Australian industry. Our relationships with globally respected partners allow us to offer consistent supply, technical support and advanced material grades customised to your needs.

Engineered Materials Solutions

Materials Matched to Your Process

We align our material recommendations with your manufacturing methods — whether that’s forging, machining, extrusion or metal casting services. Our goal is to ensure that the material’s properties perform in sync with the process requirements, eliminating rework and ensuring reliability.

Engineered Materials Solutions

Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Engineering Alloys

As a specialist in engineered materials solutions, Kormax offers ferrous and non-ferrous grades including carbon steels, stainless steels, aluminium bronzes and more, suitable for machining, fabrication or alloy casting applications. Materials are matched to performance criteria such as wear resistance, machinability and corrosion tolerance.

Near-Net Supply Options

To reduce waste and machining time, Kormax can supply engineering materials in near-net shapes or profiles best suited to your final geometry. This includes bars, billets, tubes and pre-cut forms of metal.

Logistics Tailored to Industry

From bulk deliveries to custom-packaged supply for OEMs and project-based shipments, Kormax ensures that our engineered materials arrive where and how you need them. We support just-in-time inventory and scheduled delivery programs.

ISO Quality Management

One of the most important parts of the Kormax manufacturing process is validating the quality of each component. Our quality control methods are ISO certified and use third-party evaluators to ensure an impartial verdict on the quality of your materials.

Quality Management

Balancing quality and value is non-negotiable and central to what we do. Kormax follows strict third-party quality control protocols and is ISO certified for ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 standards. All our engineering materials — whether metals or bushings — undergo verification to ensure they meet their mechanical and chemical performance specifications.

Our testing and inspection capabilities include:

  • CMM inspection (dimensional accuracy verification for machined profiles)
  • Surface roughness control (essential for components with friction or sealing requirements)
  • Visual and surface defect detection
  • Spectro analysis (chemical composition validation of metal alloys)
  • Impact, tensile and hardness testing (to assess strength and durability)
  • Ultrasonic inspection (for internal discontinuities in solid sections)

Where required for high-integrity metal parts, we also offer:

  • Radioscopy
  • Magnetic particle inspection (MPI)
  • Dye penetrant inspection

All testing is supported with documentation ensuring full traceability and compliance with Australian and international quality standards.
