How to Contact HiTech Steel for a Quote or Heat Treating Service
Updated
Hi-Tech Steel Treating, Inc. lists a single toll-free phone number — 1-800-835-8294 — as the contact route shown on its site, and the company describes itself as a Michigan steel treating company serving commercial and specialty needs. If you want a quote, the practical path is to call that number with your part details ready, since the site itself does not publish an online quote form, email address, or pricing. Customers quoted on the site describe submitting requests for quotes and getting quick responses, so expect the quote conversation to start with a phone call or a request you send directly to the company.

What to Prepare Before You Call
Because the site does not list an online intake form, the quality of your first call depends on what you bring to it. Based on the services listed and the customer comments on the site, have these ready:
- Part description and material — what the part is and what steel it is made of, since processes like carburizing, nitriding, and hardening depend on material grade.
- The process you think you need — or the property you need changed, if you are not sure. The site lists annealing, straightening, carbonitriding, flame hardening, induction hardening, stress relieving, steam treating, deep freezing, normalizing, carbon restoration, carburizing, vacuum ferritic nitro carburizing, tool steel hardening, steel cleaning, high speed hardening, and vacuum hardening.
- Volume — the company advertises "Low Volume Fast Turnaround," so small batches are explicitly in scope, but you should still state your quantity.
- Turnaround expectation — one customer comment describes parts "processed and completed in less than a week," and another praises willingness to work with quick turnarounds. If you have a deadline, say so up front.
- Drawing or specification — customers mention parts "done to our specifications," so have your spec or drawing available to send.
What to Expect From the Quote Process
Customer testimonials on the site describe the quote experience in a few consistent ways:
- Fast response to requests for quotes. One customer (Noelle D.) specifically notes "quick responses to Request for Quotes."
- Rapid turnaround. The same customer cites "rapid turn around times, with parts processed and completed in less than a week."
- Specification-driven work. April W. states parts are "done to our specifications."
- Service and follow-up. Multiple customers highlight customer service, on-time delivery, and knowledgeable staff follow-up.
These are customer statements published by the company, not independently verified figures, so treat the turnaround and pricing characterizations as expectations to confirm on your own quote call rather than guarantees.
Quality and Certification Context for Your Decision
If your quote decision depends on supplier qualifications, the site states the company is ISO 9001 certified:2015 and CQI-9 compliant. CQI-9 is the heat treat system assessment used in automotive supply chains, so this matters if you are sourcing for an automotive or similarly regulated program. The company was created in 1983 and describes its emphasis as quality, innovation, and service.
Practical Notes on Location and Service Area
The site identifies the company as a Michigan steel treating company. One customer (Noelle D.) mentions choosing Hi-Tech partly for "the convenience of their close proximity," which suggests the customer base skews regional. The site does not state a shipping policy, pickup/delivery service, or a defined service radius, so if you are outside Michigan, ask directly whether they accept shipped parts and how shipping is handled before assuming it is an option.
Common Sticking Points
- No published email or web form in the available content. Plan on the phone number as your primary route, and check the Contact Us page for anything additional.
- No published pricing. Any budget expectation has to come from the quote itself.
- Process selection can be the hard part. If you are unsure which treatment your part needs, describe the required mechanical properties rather than guessing a process name — the site's own process list is long, and the right choice depends on material and application.
- Certification questions. If you need documentation for ISO 9001:2015 or CQI-9 compliance, request it as part of the quote rather than after the work is scheduled.
