Custom Projects We’ve Solved

Murray doesn’t just manufacture parts — we solve problems. Here are real examples of custom work we’ve delivered for OEM customers.

Replacing an Overseas Supplier with Engineering Excellence

Heat Plates — Nickson Industries

The Challenge: Nickson Industries was sourcing heat plates from a vendor in China with persistent quality issues. The overseas vendor’s owner was approaching retirement with no succession plan, creating long-term supply chain risk. The customer needed improved technical capabilities and a US-based engineering partner.

Murray’s Solution: We brought manufacturing onshore with US-based contacts, improved technical support, and quality standards that the previous vendor couldn’t achieve. Murray provided both the engineering expertise and the manufacturing capability to meet the exacting quality requirements.

Result: Reliable US supply chain, superior quality, direct engineering support.

Expanding a Trusted Relationship into New Product Lines

Battery Terminal Caps & Components — Dynacraft

The Challenge: Dynacraft needed cost-cutting initiatives for battery terminal caps, brackets, and washers. They already trusted Murray’s clamp quality and cost-effectiveness and wanted to expand the partnership.

Murray’s Solution: Leveraging our existing relationship and deep understanding of their requirements, we designed cost-effective solutions for battery terminal caps, mounting brackets, and precision washers — delivering the same service and quality that built the original partnership.

Result: Cost reduction across multiple product lines, expanded partnership.

Engineering a Premium Product at a Competitive Price Point

Mirror Mounting Assembly — Kenworth

The Challenge: Kenworth needed a cost-competitive mirror product that could stand against low-cost imports while maintaining the quality worthy of the Kenworth name. The mirrors required a precision clamping mechanism — a natural fit for Murray’s expertise.

Murray’s Solution: We combined our clamping technology knowledge with precision manufacturing to deliver a mirror assembly that met Kenworth’s quality bar while remaining cost-competitive against offshore alternatives.

Result: Premium quality at competitive pricing, expanded OEM relationship.

From Trusted Clamp Supplier to Full Engineering Partner

Wire Straps — Watts Water Technologies

The Challenge: Watts was already working with Murray on high-quality clamps co-designed to exceed market-grade standards. Based on that collaborative relationship, they asked Murray to produce custom wire straps — choosing engineering partnership over commodity vendors.

Murray’s Solution: While the wire straps themselves weren’t highly technical, Murray’s value was clear: a partner who understands their standards, collaborates on design, and delivers consistently. That relationship-driven manufacturing is what sets Murray apart.

Result: Deepened partnership, consistent quality, single-source efficiency.
