The Federated Society of Boilermakers & Iron Shipbuilders of Australia was registered federally in 1911, and became the Federated Society of Boilermakers Iron Shipbuilders & Structural Iron & Steel Workers of Australia in 1929. By 1937 the union had become the Boilermakers' Society of Australia. Following an influx of members from the deregistered Blacksmiths' Society of Australia in 1965 the union was renamed the Boilermakers' and Blacksmiths' Society of Australia. The Boilermakers' and Blacksmiths' Society was itself deregistered in 1972 . Its members went on to become part of the Amalgamated Metal Workers’ Union, established a year later in 1973.
