Custom labeling and barcoding

Global shipping support with flexible delivery terms (FOB, CIF, EXW)

Advantages of Forged Steel Gear Shafts

• Exceptional Strength and Durability
  Forged steel provides superior tensile strength and impact resistance, ideal for heavy-duty applications.

• Enhanced Fatigue and Shock Resistance
  The forging process refines the grain flow, improving the shaft’s ability to withstand cyclic loads and sudden shocks.

• Improved Reliability and Service Life
  Forged gear shafts offer greater structural integrity, reducing the risk of failure in critical operations.

• Superior Wear Resistance
  Ideal for high-load gear systems, forged steel resists surface wear, even under harsh conditions.

• Better Machinability and Dimensional Accuracy
  After forging, the material is easier to machine and maintains precise tolerances for gear engagement.

• Reduced Internal Defects
  Compared to castings or bar stock, forged shafts have fewer voids or inclusions, ensuring consistent performance.

• Customized for Specific Applications
  Available in various grades like 42CrMo, 20CrMnTi, or 40CrNiMo, tailored to load, environment, and service needs.
