Dec

As specialists in the supply of gauge plate and silver steel, Coventry Grinders are also very proud to supply metric and imperial key steel.

Key steel is a basic consumer material that is found in a range of everyday items such as door handles. The metal is produced from specially processed bars of the type usually used to make machine keys. Coventry Grinders believe key steel is a very versatile product that can be used for a variety of applications, such as in factory machine shops, maintenance departments and precision engineering.

The key steel offered by Coventry Grinders is made from a EN8 bright drawn medium carbon steel and conforms to BS4235. It also has a reasonable tensile strength, hence its application in engineering. Coventry Grinders stock a full industry-standard range of key steel. It can be used practically and in keyed assembly.

We offer a full standard range of both metric and imperial size ranges. Our metric range can be found here and here is our imperial range of key steel.

As well as offering a wide range of gauge plate and key steel, Coventry Grinders are technical distributors of grinding wheels and abrasive products. We are also proud to be stockists of many leading brands. If you would like to learn more about us please click here. You can also view our great online shop here.

The History of Coventry Grinders

The History of Coventry Grinders

Dec

The Midlands is well known as the heartland of engineering and automotive manufacturing sectors throughout the twentieth century. Coventry has always been a big part of these industries and has been the home to several pioneers in both the science and engineering sectors. Coventry Grinders was established many decades ago during the 1930s, with the aim of serving the highly demanding and ever-growing industries.

During the early days, Coventry Grinders was a large engineering company that had a unique skillset for that time. Coventry Grinders has always been innovative and offered apprenticeships and jobs for locals. The organisation was mainly focused purely on grinding and served Coventry and the Midlands as well as the rest of England.

Since then Coventry Grinders has changed ownership twice and is now run by its third owner. Coventry Grinders is proud that all our owners have been from the local area, and are committed to the growth of the region and the UK’s manufacturing industry as a whole.

During the last eight years, Coventry Grinders has increased its service offering and now supplies key steel and gauge plate as well as a wide range of abrasives. Now the business has an equal split between both product types and serves a nationwide customer base.

We are very proud of our heritage and believe we have significantly developed over the last 80 years to serve the requirements of the evolving engineering sector. Coventry Grinders still prioritise fulfilling commitment to their customers’ needs and will continue to do so. Looking to the future, Coventry Grinders wants to continue its run of success and develop the business further.
Coventry Grinders are technical distributors of grinding wheels and abrasive products and are proud to be stockists of many leading brands.
