Forged Blocks & Plates

Metallurgical know-how

Our forged blocks and plates guarantee great levels of resistance and ductility because of their high-quality materials and attributes achieved in the steel forging process, making them a better choice than castings—especially for applications that need greater strength or longer life.

MATERIAL Carbon Steel Alloy Steel Tool Steel Stainless Steel	RANGE Length up to 430 in
	WEIGHT RANGE Up to 77,000 lb

BENEFITS

Our process guarantees a reduction area ratio of a minimum of 3 to 1, which allows us to ensure optimal block and plate soundness.
Compared with castings or flat-rolled products, the forging process provides the directional grain flow and metallurgical microstructure needed to improve mechanical properties such as impact and tensile strength.
At FRISA, we are a one-stop forging shop offering value-added services such as heat treatment, machining, and testing to provide you with the best solution.
