Force Machining for the India Market
Cast iron, ductile iron, aluminium and machining solutions for Indian manufacturers across automotive, hydraulics, machinery and general engineering.
India Market Overview
Indian manufacturers may specify IS standards, or work to ASTM, EN, DIN and SAE designations depending on the industry, the OEM drawing, or the imported machinery a part belongs to.
Force Machining supplies cast iron bar, ductile iron bar, aluminium bar and machined components against whichever standard your customer specification states, with grade selection support where drawings are legacy or incomplete.

Common Material Requirements
IS 210 covers gray cast iron and IS 1865 covers spheroidal graphite (ductile) iron. Imported-equipment drawings often add an ASTM, EN or DIN callout to the same enquiry.
Cast Iron Bars — India
IS // ASTM // ENBecause much Indian machinery is built to imported drawings, one enquiry may quote an IS grade alongside an ASTM, EN or DIN callout. We quote against whichever your customer specification states.
| Material | Common Grade / Reference | Typical Standard | Key Characteristics | Typical Applications | Bar Stock Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gray Cast Iron | FG 200 / FG 260 / FG 300 (grade per requirement) | IS 210 | Flake graphite iron classified by minimum tensile strength | Machinery housings, bases, general engineering parts | Stocked as bar |
| Spheroidal Graphite / Ductile Iron | SG 400/15, SG 450/10, SG 500/7, SG 600/3 (grade per requirement) | IS 1865 | Nodular graphite structure, strength and elongation vary by grade | Shafts, brackets, valve bodies, drive components | Stocked as bar |
| Imported-Equipment Specifications | ASTM A48 / A536, EN-GJL / EN-GJS, DIN GG / GGG callouts | ASTM / EN / DIN as stated on the drawing | Supplied when OEM drawings or imported machinery specify a non-IS grade | OEM replacement parts, licensed machinery builds | Reference grade |
Aluminium Bars — India
6061 // 6063 // 6082 // 7075Aluminium may be specified against IS, ASTM, EN/DIN or an OEM-specific requirement. Confirm the alloy, temper and applicable standard on your enquiry.
| Material | Common Grade / Reference | Typical Standard | Key Characteristics | Typical Applications | Bar Stock Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aluminium | 6061 | IS / ASTM / EN reference as specified | General-purpose structural and machining alloy | Machined components, fixtures, fittings | Stocked as bar |
| Aluminium | 6063 | IS / ASTM / EN reference as specified | Good finish and corrosion resistance, moderate strength | Profiles, covers, light mechanical parts | Stocked as bar |
| Aluminium | 6082 | IS / ASTM / EN reference as specified | Structural alloy with good strength and machinability | Machinery and transport components | Stocked as bar |
| Aluminium | 7075 (where applicable) | ASTM / EN reference as specified | High-strength alloy for demanding machined parts | Tooling, high-load components | Reference grade |
International grade designations are provided as a purchasing reference only. Mechanical properties, chemical composition, heat treatment, dimensions, and applicable standards may differ. Final material selection and equivalency should always be confirmed against the customer's drawing, specification, or purchase order.
