Surface Condition Options
Scot Forge produces such high quality forgings that you have
the option to purchase them with an "as forged" surface, allowing
you to completely machine them in your own shop. Or, you may
opt to have Scot Forge rough machine your parts, so they are
ready for your finish machining operation.
Accelerated Replacement Parts
Should your shop accidentally scrap out a part, Scot Forge understands the immediate need for a replacement and quickly responds.

The Advantages of Forged Machine Shop Parts
Forging offers many advantages for the production of
machine shop parts—especially when compared to
alternative metalworking processes.
Directional Grain Flow
Forging’s directional grain flow ensures high
part strength with superior fatigue resistance, mechanical
properties, and metallurgical soundness.
Superior
Structural Integrity
Forging eliminates internal voids and porosity, producing
unmatched structural integrity. Costly internal rework
and tooling wear, part rejections, and field failures
are thus avoided.
Near
Net Shapes
Our forging process allows us to bring parts closer
to net shape with forged-in instead of machined-in steps,
tapers, and I.D./O.D. configurations. This avoids excessive
material usage, unnecessary machining and welding, and
their related costs.

Cost Reduction Recommendations
We recommend the most cost-effective way to produce your parts,
through component reduction, bundling, or other cost-saving
methods.
Value Added Options from One Source
Whether you need your parts "as forged," rough machined,
heat treated, tested, or any combination of the above, Scot
Forge provides single source responsibility—so you can
prevent the delays and quality problems that arise with multiple
suppliers.

rings, blanks, and hubs in 1 week—guaranteed!
The shop offers 1- and 2-week guarantees on parts up to 30" O.D.
and up to 2,000 lbs. that are forged from certain common grades,
with in-house tooling. The 1-week guarantee applies to forged
and shipped parts, while the 2-week guarantee applies to forged
and heat treated (one process) parts.
