Contract Manufacturing First

The work gets easier when the right company owns the middle.

There is a point where a part stops being just a part. Drawings, tooling, vendors, inspections, packaging, storage, release schedules, freight, and surprises all start showing up around it.

That is where DR Metals does its best work. We help OEM buyers move from requirement to delivered product without turning every detail into a second job for their team.

You stay in control of the requirements and the decisions. We handle the messy middle: sourcing, coordination, assembly support, packing, stocking, and release. Good programs should feel calm by the time they reach your desk.

Capabilities

Built for component programs that need less drama and more follow-through.

Contract Manufacturing

Support for recurring industrial programs that need sourced parts, coordinated manufacturing, assembled product, and a clean path to release.

Component Sourcing

Castings, fabrications, rubber products, plastics, fasteners, coatings, and adjacent industrial components can be brought into one practical program.

Castings and Metal Parts

Finished ductile and gray iron, brass, aluminum, and steel castings, along with fabricated metal parts for industrial OEM needs.

Assembly and Handling

Brenham-based receiving, fit-up, light assembly support, packing, labeling, staging, and program handling keep the physical work close and accountable.

Stocking and Release

Inventory planning, warehousing, release timing, and outbound coordination are available for programs that need product ready before the next call.

Tooling and Engineering Coordination

Drawings, samples, tooling questions, outside processes, and practical production concerns get sorted into a path that can be quoted, managed, and repeated.

A Quieter Kind of Control

You do not need to watch every turn for the work to stay on course.

Send the requirement. We put the pieces in order: source, receive, assemble, pack, stock, and release. You can ask for detail at any point, but you should not have to live inside the machinery of it.

Good programs feel calm from the outside. The shelves are right, the parts are labeled, the next release is known, and the questions arrive early enough to be useful.

How It Works

Easy to start. Easy to steer. Out of your way until it matters.

01

Send what you have.

A drawing, sample, bill of materials, estimated annual usage, current supplier problem, or rough timing note is enough to begin the conversation.

02

We shape the path.

Material, process, tooling, sourcing, assembly, storage, inspection, packing, and freight assumptions get sorted into a workable plan.

03

The program gets handled.

Product moves through the right hands and lands in Brenham for assembly, handling, stocking, and release support when the program calls for it.

04

You decide. We release.

Your team reviews the moments that need a decision. When it is time to move, product ships against the schedule, order, or release rhythm your team uses.

Program Range

Industrial parts, assemblies, and stocked programs that need to show up ready.

Some jobs need a quote. Some need a quietly managed path from part requirement to finished product. DR Metals is built for the second kind too.

Supplier development is behind the curtain for a reason. The pitch is not a tour of every relationship. The pitch is product that arrives correctly, assemblies that are ready, releases that stay calm, and a team that knows when to call you.

Valve and Waterworks Components

Cast, machined, coated, rubber, fastening, and adjacent component needs.

Custom Industrial Castings

Ductile iron, gray iron, brass, aluminum, and steel casting programs.

Fabricated and Finished Parts

Metal parts, coatings, outside processes, and finish requirements.

Assembly-Ready Goods

Components received, packed, staged, stocked, and ready for release.

Stocking and Distribution

There is a difference between shipping product and keeping a program ready.

Distribution services are not a side note. They are the quiet infrastructure that keeps work available without asking your team to manage every shelf, label, date, and outbound detail.

The best version is almost boring: product is here, the plan is known, the next release is waiting, and the work moves when you say so.

Direct conversation

We're here. Send the part, send the question, or call the team. The first move should be easy.

Start the Conversation

Tell us what needs to be made, sourced, stocked, or released.

A drawing helps. A sample is better. A rough description is enough to start. Share the part, the program, the timing, or the place where the current path keeps getting heavy.

Helpful details to include:

  • Part number, drawing, and material requirement
  • Annual usage, release rhythm, or target delivery timing
  • Assembly, packing, stocking, coating, or distribution needs
  • What you want to stop managing yourself
