Forging
Upset Forging
Source Upset Forging components through FERRASTACK's audited contract manufacturing network in India.
Upset forging enlarges selected bar or wire sections to create bolt heads, flanges, valve stems, studs, and other load-bearing end forms.
- Typical materials
- Typical feedstocks include carbon and alloy steels, stainless steels, aluminium, and other forgeable bar grades.
- Scale & complexity
- The method serves repeat axial components, with unsupported length, diameter change, forming stages, heating method, and machine load defining feasibility.
- Tolerance & finishing
- Head fill, concentricity, laps, scale, shank straightness, trimming, thread production, heat treatment, and coating are drawing-dependent.
- Quality requirements
- Controls can include bar and heat identity, setup samples, dimensional gauging, surface or crack inspection, mechanical tests, and lot records.
- Why source with FERRASTACK
- FERRASTACK sources Indian upset-forging capacity together with thread rolling, heat treatment, testing, and protective finishing where required.
