Mild Steel Forging – Cost-Effective Strength for General Engineering
Shivam Forge has been supplying mild steel forgings to agricultural OEMs, construction equipment manufacturers, and general engineering firms from Rajkot for over 20 years. Our MS forging operation at Shapar GIDC handles IS 2062 E250, E300, Fe410, C20, and related low-carbon steel grades in component weights from 0.1 kg small hardware up to 250 kg structural forgings. The combination of Rajkot's deep forging ecosystem, competitive raw material sourcing, and our in-house die shop keeps our MS forging prices among the most competitive in India without compromising on dimensional accuracy or mechanical property consistency.
The case for MS forging over MS casting is straightforward for anyone who has dealt with field failures in agricultural or construction equipment. Cast mild steel components routinely develop internal porosity and shrinkage that only shows up as cracking under field loads months after installation. Forged mild steel components are dense and homogeneous — the drop hammer process literally closes any voids and aligns the grain structure to follow the part's load path. Agricultural equipment companies that have switched from MS castings to MS forgings for hitch pins, drawbar eyes, and cultivator brackets typically report a 40–60% reduction in warranty returns.
Our IS 2062 and C20 forgings are supplied in normalized condition as standard, with Brinell hardness verification done batch-by-batch. Customers who need specific mechanical properties — tensile strength, yield, elongation — receive material test certificates from our in-house lab or NABL-accredited external labs, depending on documentation requirements. For export customers in the UK, UAE, and Australia, we can align documentation to BS EN or ASTM equivalents where applicable, making our MS forgings straightforward to qualify into international supply chains.
Lead times for standard mild steel forgings at Shivam Forge run 7–14 working days for existing die programs and 4–6 weeks for new die development. We maintain billet inventory for the most common IS 2062 grades, which means we can start production quickly once an order is confirmed. For customers with recurring requirements, we offer scheduled blanket orders where you commit to an annual volume and we maintain a rolling production schedule to keep your line supplied without large single-order commitments.
Shivam Forge is located at Shapar GIDC, Rajkot — 360024, Gujarat, the geographic heart of India's forging industry. This location gives us access to India's deepest pool of skilled forging tradesmen, established raw material supply chains, and logistics infrastructure connecting to Mundra and Kandla ports for export. Whether you are sourcing MS forgings for domestic Indian distribution or building an international supply chain, we offer the technical capability, quality documentation, and commercial flexibility to be a long-term partner.
