What is Upset Forging?

Also known as metal upsetting, upset forging involves heating a metal bar between two dies, then proceeding to form it into the desired shape. This process is ideal for creating long metal parts with a forged end. Upset forging does not allow for much variation between the bar’s initial diameter and the forged head diameter. It can, however, achieve highly complex geometries when carried out over several stages.

Benefits of Metal Upsetting

• Able to form multiple pieces quickly
• Components exhibit extremely high strength
• Overall integrity of components is maintained
• Creates components that are resistant to deformation or breakage
• Saves on materials and costs

Materials & Applications for Upset Forging

There are many different materials used in upset forging, among them carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and nickel alloys. Common upset forging applications include:

• High strength bolts & screws
• Engine valves and shafts
• Couplings
• Piston rods
• Automotive parts
