Introduction FORECREU FORECREU FORECREU FORECREU HHHHOLLOWTECHOLLOWTECHOLLOWTECHOLLOWTECH
Round bars with one or several holes, straight or twisted, of high-speed steel, special steel,
stainless steel and titanium alloys. Outside diameter: from 2 to 65 mm Inside diameter: from 1/20 to 1/2 of outside diameter. Wide variety of geometries and hole positions.
High pressure and hydraulics
Our hollow bars are used as very thick wall tubes capable of taking up extreme pressure and envir onmental conditions (pr obes for tube hydroforming, HP hydraulics, transport of corrosive liquids, probes or bodies for fluid passage, optical fibers or cabling, i n j ec t i on pa r t s , e t c . ) . Many applications are found, for instance in aeronautics, automotive, chemical, nuclear, chemistr y or agro-food industries.
Mechanical engineering :
Our hollow bars can be used as components to replace drilled or bored parts in particular for long pieces. There are many potential applications: cannulated screws and parts, pump housings, machine tool components, wire guides, pins, mandrels.
Other applications to tooling concern stamping tools, punches, tubular ejectors, plastic extrusion pins, tool-holders, etc.

Among Forécreu’s privileged partners are Erasteel (high-speed steel production) and Böhler with which it operates on a close basis of industrial, technical and commercial cooperation (development of steels by powder metallurgy, extrusion of
composite materials, etc.).
Forécreu also maintains close relations with other leading participants in their respective fields (Aubert & Duval for stainless steels and special alloys, Timet for titanium alloys). Finally, the Forécreu Group works with other partners as part of its research and development program (ASTM, Government R&D partners, Public Institutes, Materials Forum).

Our main industrial sites are in the Allier region (central France) and handle most operations from design to finish. Our industrial experience includes forging, rolling, extrusion, hot and cold processing (drawing) as well as many finishing or product customization operations (cutting, grinding,...). The quality of our processes goes hand in hand with controls (suppliers audit, ultrasonic control, metallurgical testing in workshop and laboratory, mechanical tests). It is covered by ISO 9000 certification and meets the requirements of standard ISO 14000.

Hollow bars with one or several holes for industrial applications
The Forécreu process is capable of producing a wide range of hollow bars to different geometries. As
a complement to our standard processes, we can investigate any project involving our feasibility area:
Feasibility thresholds: Feasibility thresholds: Feasibility thresholds: Feasibility thresholds:
• Number of holes: 1 to 9
• Total hole surface area: less than half outside diameter section
• Outside diameter: 2 to 65 mm
• Inside diameter: 0.4 to 12 mm
• Bar length: up to 6 meters.
• Hole positioning: free. Consult us with your drawing
• Grades: See table
• Tolerances: See table .Our general tolerances can be adapted
to your specific needs. Consult us.

Bars with holes are a rational and economic alternative to drilling or boring, in particular for general
production or for holes over great lengths. In some cases, the hole can also be used as a basis for
counter-drilling or tapping or reworking operations.
Our bars are used in a wide variety of areas such as:
− Aeronautics (fasteners, components, acuators, connecting rods, central lubrication spindles,
probes).
− Chemistry and energy (transport of corrosive liquids, probes, injectors, nozzles).
− High pressure, hydro-forming (dudgeoning), hydraulic.
− Automotive (components, injection, hollow shafts, valve stems).
− Mechanical engineering (hollow shafts, pins, hollow screws, mechanical components),
precision mechanics.
− Plastic molds, injection parts, blower nozzles, cores and spindles.
