Unrestricted Geometry, Unlimited Creativity We can cut, notch, bend and weld any
feasible tube structure – we specialize in custom and prototype development
projects Learn More Remarkable Accuracy Welding surfaces fit within ±0.010” –
clocked at both ends to the entire structure – bends accurate within ±0.2° Learn
More Popular Aircraft Kits See our catalog of home builder aircraft frames and
components – or we’ll help you create something new Learn More Accurate,
Efficient, Repeatable Accelerate your project timelines and production plans –
custom or repeat orders Learn More Ready for welding – right out of the box
Documented, labeled and shipped directly to your premises – domestic and
international – or let us do the welding for you Learn More Cut, Bent, Notched
or Drilled Chrome moly steel, stainless steel, aluminum or titanium
up to 2.000” OD round or square – any angle, any combination Learn More SAE
Collegiate Series We have worked with over 200 US, Canadian and international
colleges and universities on their FSAE and Baja projects Learn More A Welder’s
Dream Just tack and start welding – cold-cut 4130 chrome-moly tubing with clean,
machined edges – welding has never been so easy Learn More Design and
Engineering Support VR3 engineers, technicians and administration are ready to
assist you with the design and production of your chassis, fuselage or tube
frame Learn More


COMPLETE
SERVICES

From project consultation to engineering, technical drawings, CNC notching,
bending and welding – we are ready to move your project forward.

STRENGTH, ACCURACY
AND CONTROL

Our notching process does not compromise the metal with heat – contact around
entire perimeter – tube ends are clocked to the entire structure.

Learn More


ACCELERATED
PRODUCTION

CNC tube notching eliminates grind-and-fit guesswork – pre-welded assemblies add
efficiencies to your manufacturing process.

Learn More


REDUCED INVENTORY
AND WASTE

Order parts and assemblies only as needed – once your CAD files are finalized
and in our system, we typically ship re-orders within days.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIES

Just Some of Our Customers

 * We’ve been using VR3 tubes for prototyping military grade vehicles,
   motorcycles and motorsport roll cages for 10 years and the quality is
   exceptional. Using their services and products is a big time savings for us.
   VR3 is super responsive when a project meets challenges and deadlines are
   tight.
   
   “
   Bill Delong, VP Manufacturing, Pratt & Miller Engineering
   AUTOMOTIVE | MICHIGAN

 * VR3 makes our complex tubular cross members and roll cages a breeze to make
   with their precise coping and bending. VR3 always goes above and beyond to
   produce what we need within our tight timelines. There is no other company
   like them and they are a key part of our success in racing.
   
   “
   Nick Carter, Fabrication Shop Manager, Vermont Sports Car
   AUTOMOTIVE | VERMONT

 * We have received two CNC-cut frame tubing kits from VR3 Engineering. These
   are cut on a proprietary CNC mill rather than laser and the cuts are much
   cleaner and ready to weld. They also fit great … Don at VR3 is great to deal
   with and the response is prompt, as is the work.
   
   “
   Dennis Palatov, Palatov Motorsports
   AUTOMOTIVE | OREGON

 * It is with great pleasure that we chose Cartesian to help us in our chassis
   fabrication. With their expertise, we will be able to build Windsor’s most
   accurate chassis in record time.
   
   “
   FSAE team, University of Windsor
   AUTOMOTIVE | ONTARIO

 * Just a note to say, wow, tubes fit together like Lego™.
   
   “
   David Shackleford, American Legend Aircraft Company
   AVIATION | TEXAS

 * Without VR3’s tube kits, I wouldn’t have a Skyote – that’s how important it
   was. It would be false economy to think you could be ahead building a plane
   the old way. Get the tubes from Don – you just can’t match the precision.
   
   “
   John Roberts, engineer and Skyote owner
   AVIATION | SOUTH CAROLINA

 * The tube set came today and I’m speechless! The quality of the kit,
   everything labeled properly, the great drawings, packaging, everything is
   great. The time it’s going to save on my build is going to be unbelievable.
   What’s more important is going to be the accuracy of the tube interfaces. If
   I do my part, this should be one of the most accurate and well-built Acro
   Sport II’s out there!
   
   “
   Chris Murley, homebuilder, Acro Sport II acrobatic airplane
   AVIATION | PENNSYLVANIA

 * The fit of the parts and precision is amazing! Once I got all the major
   components of the fuselage tacked together … we cross squared the assembly
   and found it was only out of square by less than the width of the line on the
   tape measure. I put that at about .020”.
   
   The tagging and inventory system made it easy to separate parts. Overall, the
   kit was a dream to work with and everyone who watched it progress was in awe
   as to the precision and fit.
