Nuclear submarines, surface warships, and terrestrial weapons systems all require extremely complex custom forgings. Lenape is proud to be the source that major contracts to the federal government use for these specialized forgings needed in their critical weapons systems. Examples of Lenape’s work for the U.S. Navy includes custom manways, valve bodies, reactor forgings, special missile & torpedo components, rings, and artillery. Lenape has the skills, equipment, and all-important knowledge necessary to produce fully custom forgings that must meet the exacting metallurgical and tolerance requirements for military hardware.

 

Our vast die inventory, together with our unique modular die system, allows for rapid production of forgings at competitive price points. We supply the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and other agencies. Lenape is Mil-Spec certified to meet all military specifications.

Aerospace

Our ties with space exploration go back as far as the 1980’s, where our alloy steel shaped nozzle forgings were used on the Delta family of rocket motors to further humanity’s understanding of the cosmos. Today, Lenape remains trusted by internationally known aerospace companies, including NASA, Boeing, and the U.S. Department of Defense, supplying them with many key components for their space launch rockets and launch vehicles. There is no harsher environment than space; with every single launch, millions of dollars, and sometimes human lives, are on the line and zero defects are a must. Thanks to our brilliant team, Lenape Forge has come through with successful components every time, without fail.

 

We are hard at work to help burgeoning North American rocket motor companies forge the copper, nickel, titanium, and carbon alloy components to cement the US Space Efforts as the world-leading standard. Whether AMS, ASTM, MiL, or customer specific requirements, Lenape will develop the process to forge the required parts.

Power Generation

  • It takes a significant amount of skill, knowledge and experience to create huge, custom-forged ball valves for nuclear generating stations. Demanding specifications, component reliability and exactness are essential for safe plant operation that must continue for decades with little or no capability for replacement due to the environment.

    One of the countries earliest contributors to the development of the nuclear power fleet, Lenape maintains its NQA-1 standard and NIAC approval to continue to supply safety related forgings. We specialize in carbon, alloy, stainless and nickel steel forgings to support the utility and primary equipment providers.

It takes a significant amount of skill, knowledge, and experience to create huge, custom-forged ball valves for nuclear generating stations. Demanding specifications, component reliability, and precision are essential for safe plant operation that must continue for decades in an environment where replacements just aren’t an option. Lenape and the power industry go a long way back - since our company’s beginning. Many of Lenape’s original standard forgings were made for use in power generation applications. Today, our forgings are the industry standard for connections to pressure vessels used in steam generation.

One of the country's earliest contributors to the development of the nuclear power fleet, Lenape boasts both NQA-1 standard and NIAC approval to continue to supply safety related forgings. We specialize in carbon, alloy, stainless and nickel steel forgings to support the utility and primary equipment providers. Our coal, natural gas, and oil fired power plants receive the same care and attention as our nuclear components. Lenape’s Quality department ensures that the systems and processes are in place so that each part meets or exceeds all of our customers’ required engineering specifications.
