The company with “Passion for Precision” forcustom forgings and custom manufactured studs began business in 1980 as a stud bolt manufacturer for the petrochemical and oil and gas industries. Cavalier grew adding threadin and manufacturing equipment to service the local area with general purpose fasteners on a quick turnaround basis. The company has continually promoted growth through expansions in raw material inventories and equipment.

In the late 1990s Cavalier’s market insight led to a focus on quality detailed products. Cavalier implemented a Quality Management System in accordance with MIL-Q-9858A which opened doors to the military and government markets. Cavalier found success servicing these markets with standard and specialty engineered fasteners for many years. As Cavalier identified new markets, the company’s development grew with the manufacturing of machined assembly components and engineered studs requiring custom design expertise and precision quality. Based on customer requirements, quality documentation and procedures were expanded from standard Certification Material Test Reports to full traceability of each line item, beginning with the melt of material through finished product testing. All testing requirements are completed at A2LA, accredited laboratories.
