Hub & Tooled Near Net Forgings

Why Forged Hubs?

When purchasing hubs and spindles, product integrity is critical often making or breaking a part in the field. Machined castings or hot-rolled machined bars tend to have poor structural integrity or inclusions that lead to problems with cracking and part failure. As shown in the cases below, forging has proven to be a successful solution to these problems.

Forged Hub Process Highlights

The thousands of in-stock tools at our Franklin Park hammer shop and press plants capabilities provide the ability for us to produce both simple and complex hubs as near-net shaped forgings. During the forging process, material fills the tool or tools and directional grain flow is produced, giving the hub improved strength, ductility and resistance to impact and fatigue.

Infinite Variety of Sizes

Sizes range from 3" to 144" in diameter. With no minimums for stocking grades, you can order single-piece or large quantities of products varying from a few pounds to 300,000 lbs., which we can achieve through the capabilities of our joint venture, North American Forgemasters, where we have the ability to create over-sized forgings.

Cost-Effective

Our practices reduce stock, improve mechanical capabilities and limit additional machining, making it ideal for prototypes and short-run requirements. Working with our technically trained sales staff, we are oftentimes able to provide a more cost-effective solution than a machined bar, weldments or closed die forgings, all while staying within your specific time constraints.
