What is the material choice of swing arm forging?

The material selection of swing arm forging mainly considers its mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, economy and other factors. Commonly used swing arm forging materials include carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel and so on.

Carbon steel is one of the most commonly used swing arm forging materials, its strength and toughness is high, easy to forge processing, and the price is relatively low. However, the corrosion resistance of carbon steel is poor, and surface treatment is needed to enhance its corrosion resistance.

Alloy steel is a specially treated carbon steel with higher strength and toughness and better corrosion resistance than carbon steel. However, the price of alloy steel is relatively high and is not suitable for all application scenarios.

Stainless steel is an alloy steel with excellent corrosion resistance, and its strength and toughness are also high, suitable for the manufacture of high-quality swing arm forgings. However, the price of stainless steel is relatively high and is not suitable for all application scenarios.

When choosing the material of the swing arm forging, it is necessary to comprehensively consider its mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, economy and other factors according to the specific application scenario and use environment to choose the most appropriate material.
