Forgings — Strength, Toughness & Confidence in the Field
We source open- and closed-die forgings, ring-rolled sections, and upset parts with machining and heat treat dialed to your environment—so you get performance without surprises.
Why Forgings Win
- Stronger grain flow: directional properties for safety-critical parts.
- Impact & fatigue resistance: handles shock and cyclic loads better than cast.
- Material range: carbon/alloy, stainless, nickel, aluminum.
- Versatility: from thick hubs to rolled rings and long shafts.
The challenge isn’t “can forging do it?”—it’s matching the right process and heat treat to your duty cycle. We line up the correct route and quality stack so first articles look like production.

We align to standards and customer specs; NDT options include UT, MT, and PT. Dimensional reports on request.
Forging Processes We Source
Send your drawing and targets—we’ll compare process, tooling, and unit cost to recommend the best path.
Open-Die
Large sections, custom shapes, lower tooling; great for shafts, blocks, hollows.
Closed-Die (Impression)
Near-net geometry, repeatability for mid–high volumes.
Ring-Rolled
Seamless rings with optimized grain flow; OD/ID tailored to your spec.
Upset
Localized deformation for heads, flanges, and stepped shafts efficiently.

Domestic vs Overseas Forgings
| Option | Strengths | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Domestic | Faster iteration, easier audits, clear communication. | Prototypes, tight feedback loops, critical components. |
| Overseas | Cost leverage at volume; we manage risk and logistics. | Stable, high-volume programs with forecast visibility. |
Tell us your priorities—speed, cost, or balance. We’ll show the tradeoffs plainly.
For corrosion-resistant hardware and high-strength components, start with stainless steel forging and plan post-forge machining as needed.
