Forging
"Life is too short to work with bad tools"
With us you will find everything for your craft and hobby.
We develop and produce some products such as coal and gas forge fires here in Ochsenhausen - Germany.
We source tried and tested machines, high-quality tools and a whole range of other stuff such as paints, oils and tool steels from well-known manufacturers, blacksmithing experts and smaller manufacturers.
Complete forging iron External dimensions: 370 x 300 mm Clearance: 280 x 200 mm Depth: 90 mm Flange dimensions: 120 / 60 mm Proven Swiss construction, Bauhofer/Häfliger system Cast iron upper and lower sections Oval fire bowl shape Center piece with connecting flange, freely rotatable Original price in 1991 at Gebrüder Häfliger AG: CHF 754 This item originates from a company liquidation and has been "sleeping" for decades in dry storage. It is new, but some parts naturally show some signs of storage. We are selling this item on clearance while stocks last returns or exchanges are not possible. The parts are cast and have certain tolerances. Therefore, reworking may be necessary.

Special brass ECOCAST ® - cuts #Varinfo lead-free (max. 0.02% Pb), heavy-duty special brass, good corrosion resistance and machinability. Ideal for cast parts by sand casting, permanent mold casting, low-pressure casting Advantages: high strength easy to cast easy to machine easy to cold and hot form corrosion-resistant recyclable lead-free We sell the brass in cut pieces of different sizes and weights. Dimensions range from approx. 70x60x40 to approx. 70x70x25 mm. The appearance may vary depending on the batch. Highly stable Its grain finer ensures an extremely fine grain. This enables an even distribution of forces across the entire structure. Result: strength and hardness even with thin, weight-reducing wall thicknesses, which are otherwise only known from steel. Better castability Due to its fine-grained structure, Ecocast is ideal for filigree components. Reduced waste Wherever you have previously had to rely on gunmetal for filigree shapes, the high waste of this conventional material is no longer necessary - with Ecocast. Excellent machinability Ecocast and its special chemical composition also make post-processing of cast parts safe, precise and economical by machining, grinding, polishing or coating. First-class corrosion resistance Fine-grained structure through and through - this also means minimal dezincification depth on the surface through contact, oxidation or cleaning. The future is lead-free Secure your advantage: With Ecocast, you can design and equip your products for tomorrow today. In many countries and for various customers, strict regulations on the use of lead-free materials already apply. Universal Ecocast can be cast in both ingot molds and sand. The material is standardized in EN 1982 under CC768S.

Ingot, raw, unforged, from the blast furnace Carbon content up to approximately 1.6 % in the raw ingot, forged typically approximately 0.6-0.8 %. These values are purely approximate and can vary considerably. Until the development of blast furnaces in the late Middle Ages, iron was produced in blast furnaces or blast hearths. Temperatures in these furnaces are only around 1200–1300°C. Therefore, the iron does not melt in the blast furnace; instead, the rock residue contained in the iron ore liquefies at these temperatures and flows (hence the name!) into the lower part of the furnace. The remaining, slag-containing, spongy lump of iron is called a lump of ingot, and must be removed from slag and charcoal residue by folding and hammering to produce pure iron.
square 25x25 mm, piece with length about 100 mm made of tool steel and hardenable nickel steel, surface scaled, raw, annealed. A quality product of the Balbach damascus forge Length of the piece is about 100 mm (weight is about 0.5 kg). From such a piece you can forge a blade with about 400x40x4 mm.
