In the fall of 2001 , Bar Stock Specialties , Inc . made a decision to push beyond the traditional role of a bar distribution company and took the plunge into the manufacturing of stainless steel bars . Bar Stock then completed and commissioned its new facility in Houston , Texas , U . S . A . the following year . By establishing this new location , Bar Stock charted a new course toward something rather unique in this day and age : a domestic stainless-steel cold finishing facility . It was an idea born from the desire to come to the aid of job-shop manufacturing companies . Due to material shortages at the time , the market was in need of good suppliers with short lead times and competitive pricing . Bar Stock ’ s 27,000 square-foot ( 2,500 m ² ) plant in Houston houses a comprehensive collection of cold finishing machines . The cold finish machines ’ capabilities include : cold drawing , straightening , bar peeling , custom cutting long bar lengths , centerless grinding , belt polishing , burnishing , stamping , and chamfering full bars , as well as cutting pieces and parts . Bar Stock ’ s shop was built and equipped to facilitate the needs of Houston-based original equipment manufacturer ( OEM ) suppliers and fastener manufacturers in the energy exploration , production , and refining markets . Bar Stock also specializes in toll processing work for customers in need of these value-added services . Bar Stock ’ s management is proud of the progress made since the plant ’ s inception . The facility looks drastically different than it did in 2002 , and every year , the business brings new promising opportunities . Today , the Bar Stock Specialties Houston facility features an additional 27,000 square-foot building , which houses the company ’ s heat-treated alloy steel , as well as a part of the production equipment . To keep up with the advancements in technology within the industry , the additional building also features a new bar peeler , which allows Bar Stock to peel down to 0.394 inches ( 10 mm ) of a bar , a vertical draw which allows Bar Stock to draw coil to coil up to 1 inch , a high-speed draw line , and a new Videx straightener with a 40-foot table . With these capabilities , services , and products ,

Bar Stock Specialties has the ability to fully service end-user industries including : power generation , chemical plants and desalination plants , oil and gas , petrochemical and refining ; and manufacturing industries including : forging , fastener manufacturing , pump shafting , cylinder shafts , connecting rods , bulkhead tie rods , electrical applications , and metric applications . Continued growth is expected as Bar Stock Specialties offers support to other manufacturing and distribution firms that are bent on survival in a tough global market and economy . This company is the one to call when custom lengths or sizes and ‘ hot rush ’ deliveries are required .
