About
Founded in 1990 in Spokane, WA to cater to specialty and low-quantity orders, we have expanded our service to customers around the world, without losing sight of local needs.
We focus equally on servicing the manufacturing industry DIYers, artists, repair shops, and anyone else in need of specialty metals. We offer a wide variety of aluminum, stainless, copper, brass, bronze, cast iron, chrome-moly, carbon, lead, and more. All in bar, rod, sheet, and plate in various shapes and sizes.
From it’s humble beginnings in the General Machinery building on Main and Freya in Spokane, WA, Alcobra has grown into a preferred supplier to manufacturing companies of all sizes.
Cut-to-length production has been one of Alcobra’s specialties since it was founded. But we are always eager to explore new opportunities that will further help our customers achieve greater efficiency.
Our first cold extrusion saw arrived in 2002, allowing us to greatly improve the speed and accuracy of aluminum processing. Since then we have added two more B&O extrusion saws to help keep up with demand.
In 2015 Alcobra acquired its first laser cutter and water jets, which helped establish the company as a primary source of plate and sheet processing and distribution within the Pacific Northwest. The bulk of this work takes place at the company’s processing facility at 3811 E. Rowan, which was also completed in 2015.
Recently, Alcobra has invested heavily in supporting the local demand for mild steel products. In 2024, it constructed an additional 22,000 square foot facility at 3716 N Longfellow (pictured at top of page). This pivotal shift into mild steel has allowed Alcobra to extend it support to even more manufacturers and fabricators around the region.
