agriculture

We have served this industry for many years and in that time we have acquired a great number of loyal customers who appreciate our superb quality and timely service. Tynes, coils, leaves, flat fabrications, no part is too small or large for us. We’ll be happy to make you two custom pieces or runs as large as 20,000 or more. Need help with design for new applications? Just ask us. We’re here to help.

There are many different types of coil, leaf and wire forms used in the agricultural sector. McAllister Industries has been supplying all these types for many years.

snow removal

Servicing large OEM's and the aftermarket, snow removal vehicles depend on high performance parts to get them through the day and the night. We can design, prototype, and manufacture snow removal parts for your specific needs.   

   

Snow Removal Parts:

  • Torsion spring
civic

Civic Service plays an important role in our society. We have a leading part, supporting the equipment used in a variety of Civic Service vehicles, such as city busses, skytrains, ambulances, fire trucks, and SWAT vehicles.

Civic Service Parts:

  • Heavy-duty coil springs
logging

Springs for logging vehicles can weigh as much as an entire car. Very few companies have the ability or expertise to manufacture suspension springs that may carry loads in excess of 100,000 lbs. We are one of the few, and we have a long and proud history of over 100 years, of supplying to this vital industry.

Logging Parts:

  • Leaf springs
  • U-bolts
  • Extension spring
mining

McAllister manufactures many suspension coil and leaf parts for this vital industry. We are the go-to team when you need heavy duty parts now and you need them to last. Give us a call and let us help you.

The mining industry moves a lot of material under very demanding conditions. We have, and continue to, supply a number of different products to this sector. We are the go-to team when you need heavy duty parts, when you need them fast, and you need them to last.   

Mining / Earth Moving Parts:

  • Torsion spring
  • Compression springs
  • C-springs
  • Tension spring
  • Shaker bed springs
military

We manufacture top-tier materials that meet the specified load tolerance for military vehicles. We provide custom springs solely built for military vehicles.

Military Parts:

  • Armoured car suspension coils
railway

We’ve been making coil springs and leaf springs for railway vehicles for many decades. Although almost all new rail cars use coil springs, some of the older models used a unique assembled leaf spring package where the upper springs were attached to the lower springs via wrapper ends that surrounded the eyes of the lower springs.

Railway springs tend to be compact and are required to carry very large loads for their size. Stresses must be managed carefully to ensure a long working life. Our engineering department has the experience to verify all designs meet their requirements. If they don’t, we’re here to help re-design the products until they do!

recreation

We’ve been making playground springs for many years. There are two main types - basic compression coil design, where the playground equipment is mounted. And a C-spring design that functions similarly.

Playground springs aren’t particularly highly stressed, but they do carry some pretty precious cargo! We manufacture playground springs with great attention to quality control and verify that stresses and design flaws are worked out before the product is released.

seismic

McAllister Industries has considerable experience in manufacturing very large coil springs used for seismic upgrading and constructing new buildings to better resist damage from earthquake and tremors. We have manufactured and sent these products all over the world, including the earthquake sensitive areas.

There is extensive testing and quality controls required for these types of springs. Other forms of seismic protection are available but our expertise is related to spring products.

Specialized Products
flat steel

Flat Steel Fabrications

For auto, industrial, and agricultural applications

Traditionally, we’ve focused mainly on automotive applications until about 10-15 years ago when we got more involved in steel fabrications for automotive, agricultural and industrial applications. These parts included brackets, hangers, and fabrications for specific projects. We’ve even made total loss crane attachment foundations for construction where the fabrications were buried forever under concrete when the project was finished.

green parts

Green Parts

Induction processed (small 0.1 to 5 lbs.)

Green parts are important because the environmental impact is minimal due to the induction heating process replacing the much more damaging forced air gas furnaces. As a plus, these parts tend to be of better, consistent quality and are even more efficiently made. Truly a win win for us, the customer and the environment. The only constraint is that the induction process is only viable for parts up to a maximum of 10 Lbs. or so. This may change as we go forward and invest in higher capacity equipment.

automotive parts

Automotive Parts

Shackles, hangers, overload brackets and overloads

Springs need to be attached to vehicles to work. Therefore we are also pleased to be able to provide all the common pieces needed to make your suspension work. These parts include bushings, u-bolts, shackles, hangers, pins, and shocks. Whether you need 2 or 200, give us a call.

custome shape

Custom Shapes       

If it’s made of steel and requires heat treating, welding, drilling, annealing, bending, forging, and peening, give us a call and we’ll quickly advise you if we can make it and provide a quote. We have a “can do” philosophy here and never say no. If we do say no, it’s only because it probably can’t be done – yet!

Barker and abrader arm

Barker and Abrader Arms

We’ve been making barker arms for the logging industry for many years. Whether you need 2 or 200 blades, give us a call and let us help you. Made with the highest grade of 5160 alloy and fully heat-treated for a long and durable life. Typical material size is 3/4” x 4” and up to 1” x 6” wide.

C-Springs

C-Springs

Industrial shaker screens, agricultural applications

C-springs are used in a number of applications including shaker screens, playground rides and agricultural equipment. They flex similar to leaf springs and provide support and movement as needed by the particular applications. Common runs range from 2 to 100 pieces. Typical material used is 5160 premium steel in sizes from .262” x 2” and up to .401” x 4” wide.
