When your application demands materials that won't compromise under pressure, MTS Forge delivers precision-forged stainless steel flanges and pipes in nickel, titanium, and high-performance alloys. Engineered for aerospace, nuclear, and power generation environments where corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy aren't optional — they're non-negotiable. Backed by 40 years of metallurgical expertise from Coatesville, PA.
Comprehensive forged flange and pipe solutions in stainless steel, nickel, and titanium alloys for demanding industrial applications.
Manufacturing of forged flanges up to 14 inches in size, with the majority produced for the commercial nuclear sector. Every piece is governed by a rigorous Quality Assurance Program with complete traceability from raw material to finished component.
Special forgings in 316-L Stainless Steel for Section III nuclear applications, manufactured under quality programs encompassing Mil I 45208, NCA 3800, and Mil Q9858 to ensure precision and compliance in the most demanding service environments.
Contour forging services in specialty alloys including duplex stainless steels and high-performance nickel-based materials, delivering complex near-net shapes that reduce downstream machining and material waste.
Production of upset forgings, rings, and cylinders in virtually all grades available on the market. Forging diameters up to 26 inches and maximum piece weights up to 1,500 pounds, suitable for heavy-duty flange and pipe fittings.
In-house rough machining applied immediately after forging to bring stainless, nickel, and titanium components to near-net shape, reducing lead times and eliminating the need for a separate machining vendor.
In-house normalizing heat treatment services performed at the Coatesville, PA facility, refining grain structure and relieving internal stresses in forged flange and pipe components to achieve consistent mechanical properties.
MTS Forge produces stainless steel flanges and pipes in nickel, titanium, and high-alloy grades engineered for environments where failure is not an option. Pennsylvania's industrial manufacturing corridor demands suppliers who can meet exacting nuclear, aerospace, and power generation standards — and MTS Forge has done exactly that since 1986. Every component carries complete QA traceability, is forged to near-net shape to minimize cost, and is backed by metallurgical expertise built over four decades of American manufacturing.
Four decades of metallurgical expertise and an unwavering commitment to quality set MTS Forge apart as the preferred forging partner for critical applications.
Founded by metallurgists, MTS Forge brings deep alloy knowledge to every stainless steel, nickel, and titanium forging — ensuring material integrity from the start.
Our Quality Assurance Program meets Mil I 45208, NCA 3800, and Mil Q9858 standards, providing complete traceability required by commercial nuclear and defense customers.
From tooling design and forging to heat treatment and rough machining at our Coatesville, PA facility, we control the entire production chain to reduce your lead time and cost.
Every flange, pipe fitting, and forged component is proudly manufactured in the USA, supporting domestic supply chains for aerospace, defense, and power generation.
Decades of hands-on metallurgical expertise driving every forging decision.
