Rigid quality governance at every step from prime raw billet to finished export crate.
Mill certified prime round bars undergo 100% PMI spectro chemical testing before automatic precision band saw cutting to specific billet weights.
Billets are heated under optical pyrometer monitoring and forged under heavy drop hammers to achieve unbroken metallurgical grain flow.
Components undergo calibrated Normalizing, Solution Annealing, or Q&T to relieve residual stress and achieve specified yield and tensile strength.
Multi-axis CNC turning machines cut micron-accurate socket counterbores and NPT/BSPT threads, followed by ultrasonic, MPI, and dimension audits.
