Forging Ingot Applications
Forging ingots feed the open die forging of heavy parts across power, oil and gas, railways, automotive, earth moving and heavy engineering. Pick your application to see typical components and recommended grades.
Ring Rolling
Alloy and carbon steel forging ingots for seamless rolled rings: grades, sizes and what to specify.
Flanges and Forged Rings
Forging ingot grades and sizes for flanges, blinds and forged rings used in piping and pressure service.
Shafts and Crankshafts
Forging ingots for heavy shafts, crankshafts and axles: grades, ingot sizes and quality requirements.
Valve Bodies
Steel forging ingots for valve bodies, bonnets and valve components in oil, gas, power and process plants.
Pressure Vessels and Tube Sheets
Heavy forging ingots for pressure vessel shells, nozzles and tube sheets, with IBR, PED and AD 2000 approvals.
