Chassis Components
Heavy Duty and Automotive Applications
We custom forge complex engineered shapes made from carbon, alloy and micro-alloy grade steels for automotive and heavy duty applications.
We have mechanical press lines ranging from 1600 metrics tons to 8000 metrics tons to custom forge components. We have the capability to produce forged steering knuckles from a wide variety of materials including:
- Carbon Steel
- Alloy Steel
- Micro-Alloy Steel
- Vacuum Arc Remelt Steel
We ensure high quality chassis components for our products and this is indicated by our ISO 9002 certifications. Chassis components, produced using our custom forging process, are used in a wide range of applications including:
- Passenger cars and light trucks
- Medium and heavy duty trucks
- Off-Highway (Agricultural, Construction, Marine, Industrial)
