Industrial Forgings for Surat's Diverse Manufacturing Sectors
Shivam Forge at Shapar GIDC, Rajkot supplies precision hot forgings to Surat's petrochemical (Hazira), LNG, textile machinery, chemical, and paper mill sectors. At 280 km and 5 hours by road, we deliver alloy steel, stainless, duplex, and cryogenic-grade forgings to Hazira's industrial estate and Surat's diverse manufacturing cluster with same-week dispatch on standard grades.
Surat is famous for diamond polishing and textiles, but the city's industrial base is far broader than its reputation suggests. Hazira industrial estate on Surat's western edge is home to Shell LNG terminal, ONGC Hazira plant, Reliance's gas cracker, and a cluster of large petrochemical operations. Inland, hundreds of textile machinery manufacturers produce shuttle looms, rapier looms, and finishing machinery that require precision-forged shafts, gear blanks, and guide components. Steel rolling mills, chemical plants, and paper mills round out the industrial picture. Shivam Forge has been supplying Surat's buyers across all these sectors for years.
Shell's Hazira LNG terminal and ONGC's Hazira gas processing plant require pressure vessel flanges, valve bodies, and pipe fittings in A105, A182 F316L, and cryogenic grades (A350 LF2, 9% Ni) for LNG service at -162°C. We supply with full ASTM A182 certification and Charpy impact test at test temperature.
Surat's loom and textile machinery manufacturers need shaft blanks, gear blanks, rapier guide fittings, and bearing housings in EN8, EN9, C45, and spring steel grades. We have tooled up for several common loom shaft profiles and can supply from die or near-net forgings for CNC finishing.
The diamond polishing industry needs precision tool shanks, collet bodies, and lapping plate inserts in tool steel and alloy grades. We supply D2, M2, and H13 forging blanks for Surat's diamond tool manufacturers, with annealed hardness suited for subsequent machining and hardening.
Chemical plants and API manufacturers in the Surat–Hazira corridor specify SS 316L, 317L, 904L, and duplex 2205 for reactor internals, agitator shafts, and pump bodies. We supply with EN 10204 3.1 certificates, PMI testing, and intergranular corrosion test on 904L grades.
Surat's steel rolling mills require forged rolls, mandrels, spindles, and guide assemblies in high-alloy steels — EN8, EN19, D3, H13 — capable of withstanding thermal and rolling contact fatigue. We supply forged roll blanks and guide components in relevant grades with appropriate hardness certification.
Paper mills in the Surat region use forged press rolls, dryer cylinders, and drive shafts in alloy steel and stainless grades. We supply forged blanks for paper mill components in EN8, C45, SS 304, and chrome steel, with in-house normalising to specification and CMM dimensional reports.
Rajkot to Surat via NH 48 is 280 km — about 5 hours on a good day. Daily freight departures from our Shapar GIDC plant mean that Monday morning orders are delivered Tuesday. Urgent requirements dispatched by evening can reach Hazira industrial estate before midnight.
ASTM A182, ASTM A105, and ASME-compliant pressure vessel nozzle and flange forgings for Hazira's petrochemical and LNG plants. Heat number traceable MTC, dimensional inspection report, and NDE (MT or UT) included. NACE MR0175 compliance for sour service applications.
SS 316L, 317L, 904L, and duplex 2205 forgings for Surat's chemical service applications. 904L (UNS N08904) for highly corrosive acid environments at Hazira and chemical plants. Solution-annealed and quenched duplex with ferrite measured and PREN verified.
Common loom shaft diameters in EN8 and EN9, gear blanks in C45 and EN19, and guide rail profiles in spring steel — available from existing die tooling for fast delivery to Surat's textile machinery manufacturers. Drawing-matched forgings for custom profiles within 10–12 working days.
Every shipment includes dimensional inspection report from our Zeiss CMM for critical dimensions, mill test certificate traceable to heat number, and heat treatment certificate where applicable. Surat's export-oriented customers can rely on this documentation package for downstream compliance.
For breakdown maintenance requirements at Hazira petrochemical plants or urgent textile machinery production stops, we offer weekend dispatch on prior arrangement. Call our factory line before Saturday noon — we will confirm stock availability and arrange urgent road freight to Surat.
ASTM A350 LF2 impact-tested carbon steel for -46°C service at Hazira LNG terminal. 9% nickel steel (ASTM A353 / A553) for liquid natural gas service at -196°C. Both grades supplied with Charpy impact test at specified test temperature, full MTC, and dimensional report.
Duplex 2205 (F51) and super duplex 2507 (F55) per ASTM A182 for Hazira's chloride-containing petrochemical service. Solution annealed, water quenched, ferrite measured by Feritscope. PREN >35 for 2205 and >40 for 2507 verified from heat chemistry report.
EN9 (080M50) medium-high carbon steel for loom shafts, roller shafts, and transmission components in textile machinery. C45 (1045) for gear blanks. D2 (2.379 / Cr12MoV) tool steel for die-cutting inserts and pattern blades used in Surat's apparel and fabric processing machines.
SS 316L for standard chemical service. 317L (UNS S31703) with higher molybdenum content for improved pitting resistance in acidic environments. 904L (UNS N08904) for highly corrosive acid service — sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid — found in Surat's specialty chemical sector.
ASTM A105 normalised carbon steel for ambient-temperature pipe flanges and fittings in Surat's petrochemical and chemical plant piping systems. IS 2062 Grade B structural steel for general engineering and equipment frames at Surat's manufacturing facilities.
65Mn (Chinese standard equivalent to SAE 1065Mn) for flat springs and leaf spring components in textile machinery. SUP9 (JIS equivalent to chromium-vanadium spring steel) for coil springs. EN45 (BS 970 silicon-manganese spring steel) for heavy-duty textile machinery spring components.
Surat's industrial identity is multifaceted. Yes, it is the world's diamond polishing capital. Yes, it produces a large share of India's synthetic textiles. But Hazira — the industrial estate on Surat's western flank along the Gulf of Khambhat coastline — is a different matter entirely. Shell's Hazira LNG terminal handles 5 MTPA of liquefied natural gas. ONGC's Hazira gas processing complex processes western India's hydrocarbon production. Reliance's gas cracker complex, Essar's port facilities, and a cluster of petrochemical manufacturers complete the picture of what is, in engineering terms, one of India's most demanding industrial zones. The forging specifications here — cryogenic-grade A350 LF2, LNG-service 9% Ni steel, NACE-compliant duplex 2205, ASME-documented flanges — are not for casual suppliers.
Shivam Forge at Shapar GIDC, Rajkot is 280 km from Surat's Hazira industrial estate. That is about 5 hours by road on NH 48. We supply Hazira regularly with pressure vessel nozzle forgings, pipe flanges in A105 and A182 grades, duplex stainless valve bodies, and cryogenic-grade fittings for LNG service. Our documentation process for these shipments is structured to match what petrochemical EPC contractors and plant engineering teams require: heat-traceable material test certificates, NDE records (MT and UT), Charpy impact test documentation at specified test temperature, and NACE hardness verification. All generated in-house at Rajkot, not outsourced.
Beyond Hazira, Surat's textile machinery sector is a substantial forging market in its own right. The city has several hundred manufacturers producing shuttle looms, rapier looms, water jet looms, and finishing machinery for the domestic and export textile industry. These machines require precision-forged shafts in EN8 and EN9, gear blanks in C45 and EN19, spring steel components in 65Mn and EN45, and guide rail profiles in medium carbon steel. Shivam Forge has developed die tooling for several common shaft and gear blank profiles used in the Surat textile machinery industry, which allows us to supply these components within 5–7 days rather than the 3–4 week lead time a general forging shop would need.
Surat's chemical and specialty pharma sector — smaller than Vadodara's but growing — needs SS 316L, 317L, and 904L forgings for reactor internals, agitator shafts, and pump bodies. SS 904L (high-alloy austenitic stainless with 4–5% Mo and 23–28% Ni) is the material of choice for sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid environments — the kind of conditions found in Surat's chemical plants. We supply 904L on specific order with 4–6 weeks lead time for billet sourcing, EN 10204 3.1 MTC, PMI testing, and intergranular corrosion test per ASTM A262. Not every forging company handles this grade — we do.
