Frequently Asked Questions

Can you make an assembly or finished product?

Yes. We can supply individual components or a complete assembly

What is the upper limit of your capabilities?

Cold-formed suspension components generally range from ½ to 4 inches, depending on the part. For larger or more complex designs, we evaluate feasibility case-by-case.

What is Amsted’s manufacturing footprint?

We operate 20+ facilities across North America, Europe, China, and Japan, supporting cold forming, powder metallurgy, advanced metal forming, and torque management solutions.

How long have you been making suspension ball joints?

Our combined companies have produced precision chassis components for multiple decades, bringing long-standing cold-forming and component-engineering experience to ball joint manufacturing.

Do you design suspension ball joints?

We support co-engineering, manufacturability guidance, and optimization of customer designs. Functional design typically comes from the customer, while we refine it for forming efficiency and durability.
