Drawn Cups

Deep Draw

HT Brigham produces high-quality drawn cups used across multiple industries—from automotive and white goods to industrial assemblies. These components are formed using a drawing process that shapes metal into precise cup forms with clean edges and reliable repeatability.

Precision Metal Cups Built for Scale

  • Shallow Draw Efficiency: Ideal for parts with lower depth-to-diameter ratios, drawn cups are cost-effective and quick to produce, with minimal material waste.

  • Consistent Output: Our press tooling delivers tight tolerances, clean forms, and consistent draw depth—critical for components that must seat, fit, or stack precisely.

  • Finish Ready: Parts can be supplied plain, oiled, coated, or ready for further finishing (e.g., plating, powder coating), depending on your downstream needs.

  • Material Options: Typically formed in mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminium to suit strength, weight, and corrosion resistance targets.

Common Uses for Drawn Cups

HT Brigham's drawn cups are commonly used in,

  • Automotive chassis and drivetrain applications

  • Appliance mounting or sealing components

  • Dust caps, housings, and protective enclosures

  • Industrial fastening or sealing interfaces

We can assist with tooling optimisation, prototyping, and PPAP-level production if required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a drawn cup used for?
Drawn cups act as housings, shells and containment components across automotive, electrical and industrial assemblies.
What tolerances can you hold?
We produce to tight, repeatable tolerances with consistent wall thickness batch after batch.
Can you draw stainless steel?
Yes — stainless, mild steel, aluminium, brass and coated materials are all routinely drawn.
