Hot forging process
Through our hot forging process we can make a variety of products ranging in size from ø19 to ø105. We are also highly experienced in manufacturing a variety of industrial use products, such as nuts and bearings. We have a comprehensive forging facility that can handle a wide variety of steels including tough alloy and bearing steels as materials for coils. We use our own forming technology that can prevent excess flash in bolts, thus producing a clean bolt directly from the mold.
Our mold technology enables us to make 100% of the forging molds in-house. -
Cold forging process
Through our cold forging process we can produce industrial spanners ranging from M8 to M36, which are widely used in automotive components. Our cold forged products are renowned for their durability and precision which is necessary for the steering wheels, transmission components and engine blocks of automobiles. In particular, the quality of our sockets, valves and cases is highly regarded in the global market.
