American Metal Fabricators is a custom metal fabrication shop located just outside of Charlotte, North Carolina, in an industrial area that offers a large, skilled labor force. Established in 1988, we have a proven history of fabricating projects with various materials, including steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Our 200,000 square feet facility in Gastonia, NC, allows us to handle large jobs while providing special handling for smaller jobs. We take pride in our ability to meet complex delivery requests with short lead times.
Our facilities include a sandblast building with high bay areas, drive-thru truck access, and overhead cranes. We have a gated and fenced property, with welders, fabricators, pipefitters, electricians, machinists, painters, and mechanics, designers, drafters, schedulers, and expediters, and QA/QC inspectors. Our workforce is skilled and experienced in providing professional services.

Additionally, we have five (5) shears that can cut 1/2 inch thick material with a capacity of up to 12 feet in length. Our shearing and forming services are ideal for any fabrication project that requires precise metal bending and cutting.

Sandblasting
At American Metal Fabricators, we have a dedicated building for our sandblasting department. We can SP6 to SP10 blast based on the requested profile, and our equipment has a media recovery system. We do not use silica sand, ensuring that we provide environmentally friendly services.

Assembly
With a 200,000 square feet facility, we have ample room to assemble large units, as well as stage purchased equipment to go with our finished product. We ensure that all units are assembled according to the highest standards, reducing the need for onsite adjustments.
Insulated Foam Panels
We specialize in the fabrication of insulated foam panels, with skins constructed from rigid metal or other materials such as stainless, embossed aluminum, galvanized, OSB, or pre-finished materials. Our panels are designed with a 2-inch thick polyurethane core, which offers the same thermal characteristics as 4 inches of fiberglass. Weighing in at 1.5 lbs/sq.ft., manpower and equipment requirements are minimized onsite. Additionally, we provide engineering data, which ensures that the panel systems are joined together by no-thru metal extruded aluminum members, ensuring a thermal break between the inside and outside skins, as well as reinforcing the enclosure for high-pressure applications.
