Aluminum Forging
Aluminum forgings are produced by plastically deforming aluminum alloys under compressive force to create high-strength components with superior structural integrity. Compared to cast or machined-from-plate products, forged aluminum offers improved grain flow, enhanced fatigue resistance, and excellent strength-to-weight performance, making it ideal for demanding structural applications.
Tech Steel & Materials supplies aluminum forgings in a range of aerospace and industrial alloys, produced to recognized military and aerospace material specifications. Common applications include aircraft structural components, aerospace fittings, rings, hubs, landing gear parts, and high-load industrial assemblies where mechanical reliability is critical.
Aluminum Forging Capabilities
Aluminum forgings supplied by Tech Steel & Materials may include:
- Closed-die and open-die forgings
- Forged blocks and shapes
- Forged rings and rolled rings
- Near-net and rough-machined forgings
Materials can be supplied with full certification, heat treatment verification, and inspection documentation in accordance with the applicable AMS or military specification.
Industries & Applications
While aluminum forgings are heavily used in aerospace, they are also widely specified for:
- Defense and military systems
- Industrial machinery
- Power generation equipment
- Transportation and heavy equipment
- High-performance mechanical assemblies
