Forged Discs & Hubs

At Hemway Steel, we engineer nickel-alloy forged discs and hubs for applications where failure is not an option – aircraft engine spools, industrial gas turbine rotors, and heavy machinery drivetrains.

Our upset forging process delivers what plate-sourced blanks cannot: uniform grain structure, full volumetric density, and complete freedom from center-line shrinkage. The result is a component that performs reliably under extreme loads, elevated temperatures, and cyclic fatigue.

Specialized Forging Categories

Precision Tube Sheets

Designed for multi-hole drilling in high-pressure heat exchangers. Upset forging ensures the material will not“chip”or“drift”during the drilling process, preventing crack-path bridges between tubes.

 

Blind Flange Blanks

Solid forged blanks for custom-spec flanges. Unlike plate-cut alternatives, these provide 100% volumetric density, essential for subsea manifolds and high-integrity pressure containment.

 

Forged Hubs & Bosses

By forging the hub directly onto the disc (Boss Forging), we reduce machining time by up to 40%. This process also aligns the grain flow into the raised center, strengthening the hub-to-disc transition.

 

High-Speed Turbine Discs

Engineered for extreme centrifugal stress and creep resistance. We use superalloys like Inconel 718 to ensure stability at high RPMs and temperatures exceeding 600°C.

 

Standard Inspection Criteria

Our quality management system integrates dimensional, surface, and molecular checks for every nuclear and aerospace-grade disc.
