Forging Manufacturer Supplying Surat | Shivam Forge

Surat's industrial identity is multifaceted. Yes, it is the world's diamond polishing capital. Yes, it produces a large share of India's synthetic textiles. But Hazira — the industrial estate on Surat's western flank along the Gulf of Khambhat coastline — is a different matter entirely. Shell's Hazira LNG terminal handles 5 MTPA of liquefied natural gas. ONGC's Hazira gas processing complex processes western India's hydrocarbon production. Reliance's gas cracker complex, Essar's port facilities, and a cluster of petrochemical manufacturers complete the picture of what is, in engineering terms, one of India's most demanding industrial zones. The forging specifications here — cryogenic-grade A350 LF2, LNG-service 9% Ni steel, NACE-compliant duplex 2205, ASME-documented flanges — are not for casual suppliers.

Shivam Forge at Shapar GIDC, Rajkot is 280 km from Surat's Hazira industrial estate. That is about 5 hours by road on NH 48. We supply Hazira regularly with pressure vessel nozzle forgings, pipe flanges in A105 and A182 grades, duplex stainless valve bodies, and cryogenic-grade fittings for LNG service. Our documentation process for these shipments is structured to match what petrochemical EPC contractors and plant engineering teams require: heat-traceable material test certificates, NDE records (MT and UT), Charpy impact test documentation at specified test temperature, and NACE hardness verification. All generated in-house at Rajkot, not outsourced.

Beyond Hazira, Surat's textile machinery sector is a substantial forging market in its own right. The city has several hundred manufacturers producing shuttle looms, rapier looms, water jet looms, and finishing machinery for the domestic and export textile industry. These machines require precision-forged shafts in EN8 and EN9, gear blanks in C45 and EN19, spring steel components in 65Mn and EN45, and guide rail profiles in medium carbon steel. Shivam Forge has developed die tooling for several common shaft and gear blank profiles used in the Surat textile machinery industry, which allows us to supply these components within 5–7 days rather than the 3–4 week lead time a general forging shop would need.

Surat's chemical and specialty pharma sector — smaller than Vadodara's but growing — needs SS 316L, 317L, and 904L forgings for reactor internals, agitator shafts, and pump bodies. SS 904L (high-alloy austenitic stainless with 4–5% Mo and 23–28% Ni) is the material of choice for sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid environments — the kind of conditions found in Surat's chemical plants. We supply 904L on specific order with 4–6 weeks lead time for billet sourcing, EN 10204 3.1 MTC, PMI testing, and intergranular corrosion test per ASTM A262. Not every forging company handles this grade — we do.
