BRUSH WELLMAN FORGINGS AND EXTRUSION PRODUCTS 

Brush Wellman offers fabrication of large, near-net shape components by forging and extrusion. Forging extends the size range available in copper beryllium components. Processes include rotary forging, ring rolling, roll forging, swaging, cold heading and various open and closed die forging techniques. Extrusions find application in continuous long lengths, where economy is achieved by near-net shape techniques; in short lengths where near-net shape processing is combined with high production rate; and in back extruded parts where relatively large diameter hollows can be produced economically.

A broad spectrum of applications are addressed by forgings and extrusions including disc shaped resistance seam welding electrodes, generator rings, aerospace and hydrospace components, plastic mold tooling, and abrasion and galling resistant dies and die inserts for resistance flash welding.
