Forgings of copper and brass offer a number of outstanding advantages over parts produced by other manufacturing processes. These advantages result from the inherent properties of copper and copper alloys plus additional improvements in mechanical and physical properties imparted by the forging process.

In making a forging, the metal is worked twice under tremendous pressures-first during rod extrusion and then during forging. The double working under pressure compacts the metal and produces a very dense and refined grain or fiber structure.
The tensile strength of the parts is thereby increased, and resistance to impact and abrasion is enhanced.
The dense non-porous forged metal permits the designer to specify thinner sections without the risk of leaks due to flaws and voids. Often the thinner forged parts result in lighter weight and lower piece cost compared to other forming processes.
A forging produced in a steel die with close tolerances offers several advantages. Overall part dimensions are held closer than in sand casting. Dimensions show minimum variation from part to part and permit automatic chucking and handling in subsequent operations. The precise designs on the die surface can produce sharp impressions on the forging surface, which is not economical with other forming processes.
Mass production of forged parts lends itself to maximum savings. However, smaller quantities of copper alloy forgings can also prove economical when specific design problems must be solved. These problems include leak integrity, close tolerances, high strength with low weight, and non-symmetrical shape.
Over the last decade, Weldaloy Specialty Forgings has focused on expanding our capabilities and improving our processes to ensure we always meet the requirements of our clients.

Weldaloy Specialty Forgings has worked with copper alloys for over seven decades. We regularly stock and service pure grades, Oxygen Free Copper (OFC), and a variety of copper alloys including brass, copper nickel, copper chromium and copper chrome zirconium. We excel in forging parts in these materials and have a deep understanding of the varying demands for the different industries that use these metals.
In addition to our wide selection of copper alloys to meet your project's demands, Weldaloy Specialty Forgings has many forging options for our clients. We offer both open and closed die forging, with the ability to forge a single part from 20 lbs. up to 6,000 lbs. We can forge bars, disks, blocks, hubs, hollows and rings, as well as producing a variety of unique shapes using custom dies, all in a wide variety of forgeable materials.
To reduce development time for our clients, Weldaloy has put in place a solid pre-production process. This process often includes forging simulations. Our forging simulation verifies that our forging abilities and customer requirements can be met before the order is placed, and before we heat up a part. This ultimately decreases production time, material waste, and allows for a quicker order turnaround for our clients!
Weldaloy Specialty Forgings has highly trained and skilled metallurgists on our team. Every part we produce is supported by our team of metallurgists that ensures our products meet our clients' specifications. Whether it is fine grain forging demands or unique specs, send us your requirements and our amazing team of experts will be happy to assist you.
With over seven decades in forging pure grade copper, OFC, and copper alloys, Weldaloy Specialty Forgings is the go-to for your copper forging needs.
