Custom Forged Shapes

All Metals & Forge Group manufactures high-quality custom forged shapes designed to meet precise engineering and performance requirements. We produce components directly from customer forging drawings or finished part prints. Because many industrial applications require non-standard geometries, our team develops forging strategies that align with both design intent and material performance goals.

Our custom components include conical shapes, valve bodies, nozzles, girth flanges, and other specialized geometries. In addition, we manufacture complex profiles using controlled open die forging techniques. These capabilities allow us to support demanding industries such as oil and gas, power generation, aerospace, defense, and heavy equipment manufacturing.

Custom Forging Process

All custom shape forgings produced by All Metals & Forge Group are rough machined to provide a 250 RMS, or rough machined surface, to reduce the wear on finish machine tooling. Forgings are also ultrasonically tested according to the applicable ASTM, AMS, ASME, NACE, SAE, AISI or other specification. Other testing may include liquid dye penetrant testing, or physical property testing for tensile, yield, elongation and reduction of area properties.

Forging Processes for Custom Components

To produce specialized shapes, we apply several forging methods based on part geometry and material type. These processes include open die forging, drawn-over-mandrel forging, upset forging, cogging, and rolled ring forging. Each method shapes the material differently; therefore, we select the most effective process to achieve structural integrity and dimensional accuracy.

For example, upset forging increases cross-sectional thickness in targeted areas, while cogging refines grain structure across larger sections. Similarly, mandrel forging helps form internal diameters and hollow sections with controlled wall thickness. As a result, customers receive forged components that balance strength, weight, and machinability.

Because forging refines grain flow and eliminates internal defects commonly found in castings, custom forged shapes often provide superior fatigue resistance and long-term reliability.

Heat Treatment and Mechanical Property Control

In addition to forging, All Metals & Forge Group provides in-house heat treatment to modify mechanical properties according to application requirements. We apply controlled cooling and tempering practices to improve strength, toughness, and wear resistance.

Available heat treatment methods include annealing, case hardening, precipitation hardening, and quenching and tempering. Each process alters the microstructure of the material in a specific way. Consequently, we tailor heat treatment cycles to meet customer specifications for hardness, tensile strength, and impact resistance.

Because mechanical performance often determines service life, proper heat treatment remains a critical step in producing reliable custom components.

Quality, Materials, and Application Support

We manufacture forged components in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, nickel alloys, aluminum, and titanium. Furthermore, our team evaluates each project to ensure the selected alloy meets environmental, load-bearing, and corrosion resistance requirements.

From initial drawing review through final inspection, we focus on dimensional accuracy, material integrity, and consistent quality. Therefore, customers receive custom forged shapes that perform reliably in demanding service conditions.
