Quality Propulsion Shaft Forging

 Forging the shaft Strength & Durability‌
30%+ higher tensile strength vs. cast shafts, with optimized grain structure for enhanced impact resistance. Precision Performance‌ Grain streamline alignment ensures stability in high-load/high-precision applications (e.g., forged wind turbine shaft, marine shaft forging.propeller shaft forging). ‌Material Efficiency‌ Plastic deformation minimizes defects like voids, reducing failure risks and maintenance costs.

So it can withstand extreme conditions (shock, vibration, corrosion) and last longer. It can reduce the frequency of replacement and downtime compared to cast alternatives.For customers who require strength, precision and durability of shaft forgings, please contact us.

Forged shaft
OEM Heavy Industry Large Forging Shaft for Big Machinery Equipment

Our shafts are made of high-quality materials for precision and durability. They provide superior strength and reliability for a variety of applications. Strict quality control allows you to rely on the performance of our forged shafts.

The Material of the Forged Shaft

We use carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy and nickel alloy. In the forging of shaft products, they play a leading role in transmitting high power, reducing size and weight, improving wear resistance, and adapting to high, low and corrosive environments. In corrosive environments, alloy steel may be used. According to your industry requirements, we can customize material solutions. To achieve the best performance.

Carbon Steel Shaft

property:Carbon steel can maintain structural stability under long-term cyclic loads and is widely used in industrial equipment (such as crankshafts, gears) ‌ and has good ductility, can be processed into special-shaped parts (such as flanges, springs) by cold stamping, forging and other processes ‌ reduce procurement and production costs ‌ improve equipment reliability and efficiency

Carbon steel ‘s rigidity and wear resistance can withstand high speeds and complex loads ‌‌ in the field of energy and power ‌
In aerospace and Marine ‌ fields, ordinary carbon steel shafts, after carburizing or surface hardening treatment, can be used for ship propulsion shafts and non-high-temperature aviation components (such as auxiliary equipment shafts) ‌ maintain stability in operating conditions, excellent fatigue resistance, and ensure the reliability of continuous operation of equipment ‌

Alloy Shaft:

Performance advantages: Alloy steel can maintain higher plasticity and toughness at the same hardness, meeting the dual demands of high strength and impact resistance. For example, AISI 4340 low alloy steel can achieve a high yield strength of 150 KSI through heat treatment and also has excellent impact toughness. In addition, alloying elements (such as chromium and nickel) can form a dense oxide film, which can resist acid, alkali, salt and high-temperature oxidation corrosion, thus extending the service life of components

In the aerospace field: The main shafts of aero engines, landing gear support shafts, etc. are made of high-temperature alloys, which can maintain structural stability at temperatures ranging from 723 to 873K, meeting the requirements of supersonic flight
In energy and heavy industry ‌:
The main pump shaft of nuclear power plants, the main shaft of wind turbines, etc. are made of corrosion-resistant alloy steel (such as AISI 4340), which can withstand seawater erosion and alternating stress, and the service life is increased by more than 30%

Stainless Steel Shaft

 Performance advantage: Stainless steel shaft has corrosion resistance ‌ A dense chromium oxide film (passivation film) is formed on the surface, effectively resisting corrosion from air, water, acids, alkalis and salts. It has high tensile strength and can also withstand heavy loads and impacts. Not prone to oxidation or deformation in high temperature environment, prolonging equipment life ‌.

In Chemical and Energy Equipment ‌ :
The stirring shaft, nuclear power pump shaft, etc. are made of 316L stainless steel, which is resistant to strong acid and strong alkali media and reduces the corrosion rate
Marine Engineering and shipbuilding ‌
It is used for key components such as ship propulsion shafts and steering shafts, and is resistant to corrosion from seawater and erosion by Marine organisms

Aluminum Shaft

property:Aluminum alloy is lightweight and high-strength, which can significantly reduce the structural weight. It has excellent corrosion resistance, with a naturally formed dense aluminum oxide film on the surface, effectively resisting corrosion from the atmosphere, seawater and chemical media

In aerospace ‌ : Aluminum shafts are used in critical components such as landing gears, wing brackets, and engine couplings, significantly enhancing range and fuel efficiency through lightweight design (with a density of only 34% that of steel)
Energy and Industrial equipment ‌ : Nuclear power equipment cooling pipe shaft, chemical reactor connecting shaft extend service life through the corrosion resistance of aluminum (surface passivation film)

Nickel Alloy Shaft

In terms of performance:Nickel- alloys can still maintain excellent mechanical properties and oxidation resistance in high-temperature environments, and perform well in corrosive media. For example, Hastelloy C-276 can resist strong corrosive media such as wet chlorine and sulfuric acid. These significant advantages can meet the strict requirements for material properties in industrial manufacturing

In aerospace ‌It is used for high-temperature components such as the main shaft of aero engines and the rotor shaft of gas turbines, maintaining stable performance at high temperatures and withstanding the thermal shock and oxidation environment caused by supersonic flight
Energy and Chemical equipment ‌
The main pump shaft of the nuclear power plant and the stirring shaft of the high-temperature reactor are made of ‌Alloy X nickel-based alloy ‌, which is resistant to corrosion by strong acid and strong alkali media. The corrosion rate is reduced by ‌70%‌ and the service life is increased by ‌30% or more ‌
