Forging - Magnus Sourcing

Forgings
sourced from India.

From automotive crankshafts and connecting rods to high-precision cold-forged fasteners — strong, near-net-shape forgings sourced from India's established forging clusters, for OEMs across the USA, Europe, UAE and Australia.

The Right Forge
for Every Part

India has a well-established forging industry, with capabilities spanning small precision components to large structural forgings, supported by clusters in Rajkot, Ludhiana, Pune, Faridabad, and coimbatore. Indian forgings are widely recognised in global markets — particularly automotive forgings such as crankshafts, connecting rods, axles, and steering knuckles. Hot forging dominates volume production, while cold forging is increasingly used for high-precision fasteners and small components with tighter tolerances and a better surface finish.

Magnus matches each part to the forge best suited to its size, material, and process — then manages sampling and shipping.

From billet to
finished part.

Billet Cut & Heat

Steel billets are cut to size and heated to forging temperature

Pre-forming

The heated billet is rough-shaped to distribute the material.

Blocking

The pre-form is pressed closer to the final shape in blocking dies.

Finish Forging

The part is forged to its final shape in finishing dies.

Trimming

Excess flash is trimmed away from the forged part.

Heat Treatment & Inspection

The part is heat-treated for strength, then inspected before dispatch.

Alloys &
materials.

Carbon & Alloy Steels

EN8, EN9, EN24 (carbon) · EN19, EN36 (alloy)

Stainless Steels

Austenitic and martensitic grades

Non-Ferrous

Aluminium alloys

Questions buyers
ask us first.

What is the difference between open-die and closed-die forging?

Closed-die forging shapes metal between two dies for high-volume, near-net-shape parts such as crankshafts and gears. Open-die forging works larger, simpler shapes — pump shafts, press frames, and wear parts — without enclosed dies.

Can Magnus supply forgings fully machined and finished?

Yes. Forgings can be heat-treated and machined to final specification, so parts arrive ready to use.

What materials can be forged?

Carbon steel (EN8, EN9, EN24), alloy steel (EN19, EN36), stainless steel, and aluminium alloys.

Which markets and industries does Magnus serve?

Forgings are exported to the USA, UK, Germany, Australia, and Canada — across automotive, railway, oil & gas, mining, agriculture, and general engineering.
