High Quality Forged Plate

Forged plates are high-strength metal plates produced through high-temperature and high-pressure forging. Compared to rolled plates, they feature a denser internal structure and better mechanical properties, ensuring reliable performance under heavy loads and impact. They are widely used in aerospace, energy, heavy machinery, molds, defense, and shipbuilding—especially in critical structural components.

Chalco offers forged plates in aluminum, steel, and titanium alloys, covering standard sizes and custom specifications. Finishing and testing services can also be provided to meet demanding manufacturing needs.
