Materials & Grades

Forging Materials & Steel Grades

Choosing the grade is half of designing a forging. Each page below sets out chemistry, mechanical properties after heat treatment, forging behaviour and the components the grade actually suits — written from what we run on our own line at Gondal, Rajkot.
