(aka: "forged irons") a process of manufacturing clubs where the clubhead is stamped or hammered and ground into shape with or without heat. Opposite of 'cast'. Example: Forged irons have a softer feel than cast irons, as a general rule.

Semi-products produced by forging through appropriate shaping.

Fashioned, shaped or created.

making or forming metal by heating and applying pressure; committing forgery; moving on He was intent on forging a revolutionary set of tools. You are guilty of forging that signature. We should be forging ahead with this research. forge (n), forgery (n)

Clubhead manufacturing process that involves making the head from a single solid piece of steel that is heated and then formed into the desired shape.

Metals which have been heated, then shaped by hammering.

A forming process which dramatically changes the length and cross contours of a material to form highly sculpted shapes.

or hand-forged A type of high-quality knife blade that is handcrafted from superheated metal. Hand-forged blades are accepted as the strongest and sharpest available. The term fully forged means the whole knife (blade, bolster, and tang) has been formed from a single piece of metal.

part obtained by the deformation of the steel, brought up to a temperature where it is rather malleable, by shock or pressure; for certain grades of steel forging is done cold.

The process of forming ingots, blooms and billets into wrought shaped products by applying pressure at elevated temperatures using a press. Some austenitic stainless steels and nonferrous alloys are formed at room temperature.

a process used to create a club head where a block of carbon steel is pressed and formed into shape rather than being cast in a mold. Because of the labor intensive nature of this process forged golf clubs are usually more expensive. A forged golf club will have a softer feel and more consistency due to the fact that the steel is compressed to eliminate any inconsistencies that can occur in the casting process.

Considered to be the best wheel manufacturing technique, forging allows for the compression of an aluminum billet (one solid piece of aluminum) into an aluminum wheel using over 13 million pounds of pressure combined with heat. This produces a wheel that is both stronger and lighter then your standard aluminum wheel.

The controlled shaping of metal with a hammer.

shaped by hammering. Only the malleable metals are worked successfully. The application of heat increases plasticity.

A blacksmithing technique in which metal is shaped by hammering, usually while at red or white heat.
