Drop Forging Manufacturer in India – Closed Die Drop Forged Components

Shivam Forge has been manufacturing drop forged components from Shapar GIDC, Rajkot for over 20 years, building a reputation across India and 12 export countries for consistent quality, tight tolerances, and reliable delivery. Our closed-die drop forging plant operates multiple hammer lines capable of producing components from 0.1 kg precision parts to 500 kg heavy industrial forgings, covering the full spectrum of engineering requirements from a single facility in Gujarat's premier forging belt.

The mechanical advantage of drop forging over casting or bar machining is well established in the industry. When you close-die forge a component, the grain flow follows the part contour — unlike machined parts where grain lines are cut across — resulting in 20–30% higher fatigue strength, superior impact resistance, and better surface hardness. For safety-critical parts like steering knuckles, lifting hooks, oil field fittings, and agricultural hitch components, that difference in material integrity is non-negotiable. At Shivam Forge we hold critical dimensions to ±0.3 mm and verify every lot with dimensional inspection before dispatch.

Our material capability spans carbon steel grades EN8 and C45, alloy steel EN19, EN24, and SAE 4140 (42CrMo4), case-hardening grades 20MnCr5 and 16MnCr5, mild steel IS 2062, ASTM A105 for pressure-rated components, and stainless steel F304 and F316 for corrosive environments. All raw material is sourced from approved Indian steel mills with mill test certificates. When customers require third-party material certification from NABL-accredited labs, we arrange that as part of the quality package.

Export customers from the UK, Germany, UAE, USA, and Australia regularly source drop forgings from our Rajkot plant because of the combination of price competitiveness, consistent quality, and documentation standards that match international expectations. We provide material test certificates, dimensional inspection reports, non-destructive testing results (ultrasonic or magnetic particle), and packing lists in the format buyers specify. Sea freight to European and Gulf ports typically runs 18–28 days from dispatch; air freight for urgent requirements is also coordinated from our end.

Getting started with Shivam Forge is straightforward. Share your component drawings, material grade, heat treatment requirements, and annual volume. Our engineering team reviews the design for forgeability, advises on die design if the part has undercuts or complex geometry, and comes back with a competitive quotation within 24 hours. For new programs, we offer development die pricing with amortization spread over initial production runs.
