XTEK

Xtek produces custom machined and heat-treated parts and component assemblies for heavy-duty industrial applications... Xtek's roots can be traced to a young inventor named Russell Bloomfield who, at the turn of the 20th century, was seeking a way to make cup and cone bearings for bicycles that could take the harsh pounding of the period's cobblestone streets. Bloomfield's work led to the development of a steel hardening process that eventually became known as the Tool Steel Process (TSP) because the metallurgical properties that it imparted to gears and bearings made them "as hard and as durable as tool steel."... Xtek provides engineering and metallurgical expertise with quality machining capabilities, to solve tough power transmission and material handling problems.
