Co-Founder
Edward Waddell is a co-founder of MTS Forge, establishing the company in 1986 alongside Stephen Carr with a shared vision of delivering high-quality forging solutions to America's most critical industries. Edward's metallurgical background and comprehensive knowledge of forging practices have been central to MTS Forge's technical reputation and its ability to produce precision components in alloy steels, stainless steels, and high-performance nickel alloys. His expertise has guided MTS Forge's expansion into demanding sectors such as commercial nuclear, oil and gas, power generation, and defense, where dimensional accuracy, material integrity, and certified quality programs are non-negotiable. Edward's contributions to building an experienced team of forging associates and investing in advanced in-house capabilities have established MTS Forge as a trusted domestic manufacturer for procurement teams across Pennsylvania, Iowa, Kentucky, Texas, and beyond.
Alloy 625 (UNS N06625) is primarily valued for its outstanding corrosion and oxidation resistance across a wide temperature range, making it ideal for seawater, acidic, and high-temperature oil and gas environments. Alloy 718 (UNS N07718) is a precipitation-hardened grade offering significantly higher tensile and yield strength, making it the preferred choice for high-stress structural components like fasteners, shafts, and turbine parts in power generation and aerospace applications.
