Crankshafts & Eccentrics

With over 90 years of experience producing single, double and multi-throw crankshafts and eccentric shafting, Ellwood City Forge is the industry leader for this specialized type of forging. Available in all sizes and dimensions for a variety of applications, we can produce crankshafts and eccentrics in weights up to 65, 000 lbs. and lengths to 45 ft.

ECF forgings are found in very large V-type engines, mechanical presses, natural gas, oil and other fluid transmission compressors, tri-, quinti-, and septimplex style pumps, and all types of mechanical equipment such as shears and rock crushers. Three GFM crankshaft machining centers, uniquely designed for Ellwood City Forge, are available for specialized semi-finished specifications.

ECF is one of the world's only remaining producers of large, multithrow crankshafts. Our high quality crankshafts, forged with directional grain flow, are strong enough to stand up against fatigue on even the most demanding commercial and industrial applications. Our Crankshaft and Eccentric forgings can be made from a wide range of carbon and alloy steels, custom engineered by ECF metallurgists to provide the optimum balance of mechanical properties and machinability.
