Volume and Cost Control for Motorsport Steel Supply Chain

Hillfoot have established ourselves as a leading supplier of steel to the motorsport sector, thanks to our ability to achieve competitive material costs combined with just in time deliveries.

We have worldwide supply chains in place, with approved OEM mills to supply all carbon and alloy steel grades in bright or black finish in round, square and flat sections for distribution to a high number of 1st tier subcontract machinists in the UK.

In addition to this, material is also purchased for forging applications in the motorsport industry.

To back up material supply in bar form, Hillfoot have invested in state-of-the-art carbide saw facilities designed to cut high volume parts efficiently with a datum face, if required, of 0.5mm in length.

A next day delivery service is in place throughout the UK for all palletised cut billets.

Hillfoot are also a proven logistical partner from steel mill production through to end-user supply. Due to the high-volume low-cost requirements of this sector, traditional stockholder supply models are often unsuitable, so Hillfoot have taken a strategic view of this supply chain to offer solutions that suit all customer requirements.

Contact our specialist sales team for more information about how Hillfoot could reduce costs and improve service levels in your motorsport steel supply chain.
