Services
Since 1960, Cove Four / Cove West has supplied precision-engineered wire and metal components to manufacturers across multiple industries. Based in Fullerton, California, our facility integrates decades of practical experience with advanced production capabilities. We deliver high-quality products that meet demanding specifications for performance, durability, and efficiency.
Custom Wire Forms: Built for Function and Consistency
Custom wire forms are a foundational part of our manufacturing capabilities. These components support a wide range of mechanical and structural applications. Our team works with round, square, and shaped wire in materials such as low-carbon steel, stainless steel, galvanized steel, and other alloys.
Using CNC wire forming equipment, we produce complex wire geometries with repeatable accuracy. Whether you need simple hooks or intricate bracket-style forms, our process supports both low- and high-volume production. Our team can develop wire components based on your supplied CAD files or collaborate on new designs using in-house tooling and prototyping capabilities.
Custom wire forms produced by Cove West are commonly used in consumer products, industrial assemblies, construction hardware, and specialty fasteners. Each order is supported by rigorous quality checks and consistent communication throughout the process.
Wire EDM Services: High Precision for Fine Features
Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) is one of our advanced capabilities. This process uses an electrically charged wire to cut hardened metals with extreme precision. It’s especially effective for projects involving intricate shapes, tight tolerances, or hard-to-machine materials.
Our EDM services support the development of dies, fixtures, inserts, and production parts. These components often require accuracy that conventional machining cannot achieve. With wire EDM, we maintain smooth finishes and sharp internal corners, enabling tight fits and clean transitions.
We frequently use wire EDM in support of our custom tooling operations. When your project calls for small-scale features or tight dimensional control, wire EDM services offer a reliable solution. Our shop accommodates prototypes and full-scale runs while maintaining consistent process control.
Product Development: From Concept to Production
Beyond manufacturing, Cove West provides comprehensive product development support to bring your ideas to life. Our expertise in wire and metal component manufacturing allows us to partner with you from initial design to final production.
Our facility includes:
- In-house CAD/CAM and tooling design support to refine or create new designs, ensuring optimal performance and manufacturability.
- Prototyping and short-run support for efficient testing and iteration.
- Assembly, kitting, and packaging services for streamlined finished solutions.
- Plating, coating, and finishing options through trusted partners.
Materials and Manufacturing Flexibility
We work with a wide selection of materials based on project needs. This includes low- and high-carbon steels, stainless steels, and galvanized wire. The team at Cove West selects materials based on mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, conductivity, and forming requirements.
Production volumes can range from small batch prototyping to large, recurring orders. This flexibility allows our team to support product launches, seasonal demand shifts, and vendor consolidation efforts.
Our tooling shop enables fast setup and changeover between jobs, and we maintain rigorous inspection standards across all orders. For projects involving custom wire forms or precisely stamped parts, our approach helps reduce lead time without compromising consistency.
Industries Served
Cove West products are used across a broad range of industries, each with its own set of functional and technical expectations. Our ability to meet these needs stems from consistent process control, material selection expertise, and a collaborative approach with our customers.
- Construction and Landscaping: Our custom wire forming capabilities are essential for producing specialized fasteners and structural components. This includes landscape anchor pins and soil staples used to secure erosion control fabrics, drip lines, and artificial turf. These components are commonly used by contractors, public works departments, and site developers who depend on consistency, strength, and timely delivery.
- Electrical and Power Systems: We leverage our precision wire EDM and custom wire forming services for critical components in electrical systems. This includes manufacturing fuse clips and connectors that play a vital role in power distribution and circuit protection. We provide these components to manufacturers of power supplies, transformers, and electronic modules, where attention to conductivity, durability under thermal load, and form stability is essential.
- Consumer Products and Fixtures: Our custom wire forms support a wide range of retail and residential applications. From display fixtures to appliance components, these parts must balance function and appearance while meeting exact size and shape requirements.
- Industrial Equipment and OEMs: Our services provide essential components for control panels, machinery, HVAC systems, and various OEM assemblies. We manufacture brackets, clamps, and wire components that hold, support, or guide mechanical systems in industrial environments.
No matter the industry, our goal is consistent: to provide reliable components that meet your expectations and integrate seamlessly into your end-use products or systems. We welcome technical drawings, physical samples, and detailed use cases so that every order starts with a clear understanding of its intended function.
