Industry Expertise

When it comes to metal spinning for marine vessels, structures, or components, performance and durability are non-negotiable. At Tanfield, we combine decades of experience with advanced spinning techniques to deliver components capable of withstanding constant exposure to salt water and other corrosive elements. Using marine-grade materials, including copper and stainless steel, we ensure every part meets the high standards required for marine engineering. Our processes increase the strength and durability of the metal, enabling it to perform reliably in harsh environments over long periods.

Marine Metal Products 

Tanfield Metal Spinners manufactures a range of components for marine vessels, systems, and structures. Our products are designed to deliver exceptional resistance to corrosion, ensuring they remain reliable under the toughest conditions. 

Products We Manufacture:

  • Pump housings for seawater systems 
  • Seawater piping and fittings 
  • Condensers for marine applications 
  • Aquaculture cages and enclosures 
  • Marine-grade domes, tank heads, and end caps 
  • Custom components for marine vessels and structures 

By working with marine-grade materials like copper, stainless steel, and specialised alloys, we deliver components that combine rust resistance, durability, and long-term performance. 

 

Capabilities Used to Deliver Marine Metal Spinning 

At Tanfield, we match our advanced metal spinning techniques to the specific requirements of marine applications. Our team advises on the best processes and materials to ensure maximum durability, strength, and corrosion resistance. 

We offer: 

  • CNC metal spinning for precision forming of marine components 
  • Polished and treated finishes to prevent corrosion and rust 
  • Expert handling of marine-grade materials like copper and stainless steel 

For example, copper spinning is ideal for pump housings and seawater systems due to its natural resistance to saltwater corrosion. Similarly, stainless steel offers superior strength and rust resistance for vessel components that face constant environmental exposure. 

 We specialise in working with marine-grade materials to ensure long-term performance and corrosion resistance: 

Copper
Stainless Steel
Aluminium Alloys
Titanium

Top things we get asked

Metal spinning produces seamless parts that are durable and resistant to corrosion—crucial in harsh marine environments. The process also supports custom shapes and low-volume production runs, which is ideal for specialised marine components.

  • Propeller cones and covers
  • Buoy shells
  • Radar and sonar housings
  • Marine lighting enclosures
  • Ventilation hoods
  • Wave and current sensor housings
  • Seamless parts for better strength and corrosion resistance
  • Reduced material waste
  • Lower tooling costs compared to stamping or casting
  • Ability to prototype and customise designs easily
  • Good for both low and mid-volume production

Absolutely. Spun parts can be anodised, powder-coated, painted, or passivated to meet marine-grade durability and aesthetic standards.
