RECREATIONAL VEHICLE & MARINE ENGINE

Manufacturing for RV & Marine Duty Cycles


Centracore delivers precision engineered components for powertrain, chassis, driveline, and structural systems used in RV and marine engine platforms. These applications demand components capable of with standing intense vibration, long duration operation, corrosion, and extreme environmental conditions (requirements that align directly with our core manufacturing strengths).

With decades of experience supporting adjacent heavy duty markets, Centracore provides RV and marine OEMs with the combination of lightweight materials expertise, high strength ferrous and non-ferrous manufacturing, and full lifecycle engineering support needed for modern recreational and marine platforms.

Engineered for Demanding RV & Marine Environments

RV and marine applications face some of the most challenging duty cycles in the industry. Centracore supports these requirements with:

  • Lightweight aluminum components for improved performance
  • High strength iron and steel parts for structural and enginerelated applications
  • Deep understanding of severeduty vibration, corrosion, and long runtime operating conditions
  • Manufacturing scaled for diverse product families (from low volume specialty engines to high volume recreational powertrains)

Lightweight & High Strength Component Solutions

Centracore’s manufacturing capabilities include:

  • Aluminum High Pressure Die Casting (HPDC) for housings, covers, brackets, and structural engine components requiring strength, reduced weight, and corrosion resistance
  • Precision machining of aluminum, iron & steel castings, forgings, and extrusions (ideal for vibrationintensive and heatloaded environments)

This combination of lightweight performance and structural durability enables RV and marine manufacturers to meet modern efficiency, emissions, and powerdensity expectations.

FACILITIES
