Haven Steel Products

What Haven Steel Products does

Haven Steel Products is a privately-held US industrial manufacturer founded in 1968, producing forged spring steel components, tillage implements, rotary cutter blades, and Supertuf® commercial mower blades from facilities in Haven, Kansas and McKenzie, Tennessee. The company serves original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), short-line manufacturers, and aftermarket customers across agricultural equipment, construction/landscaping, trailer, railroad, recreational furniture, and industrial/municipal end-markets, with products shipped throughout the continental United States, Canada, Mexico, England, and South America.

The company's core technology stack centers on vertically integrated steel fabrication: forging presses ranging from 700 to 1,000 tons, five continuous-process quench and temper heat treat lines, instrument-controlled gas-fired furnaces and induction heating systems, CNC machining, and a state-of-the-art automated powder coating line with an eight-gun monorail system. Capabilities extend across parts weighing from less than 1 lb to over 85 lbs, with rectangular bar processing from 0.237" to 1.5" thickness and 1.5" to 8" width. Manufacturing occurs in over 200,000 square feet of production space, with special forming and fabricating machines designed and built in-house by company employees. The company maintains ISO 9001-2015 Quality System certification and holds ASM and FEMA trade memberships.

The business model is a B2B enterprise field sales approach with direct-to-OEM distribution and aftermarket parts sales. Revenue is generated through one-time sales of custom-forged steel components and value-added processing services (heat treating, powder coating, forging, hot forming), with quote-based pricing reflecting custom specifications, quantities, and processing requirements. There are no public pricing details, no disclosed revenue figures, and no external funding rounds, indicating a self-funded, owner-operated industrial business that has grown organically through facility expansion and vertical diversification over more than five decades.
