Forge Motorsport fabrication division - just fab-ulous..
Gloucestershire based Forge Motorsport has been at the forefront of engineering-led tuning improvement for decades, but not many enthusiasts know about their bespoke fabrication division. Although the mainstay of Forge’s output are beautifully machined and hand-crafted production items, there also exists a small, but talented team that can crate literally anything for motorsport, specialist manufacturing or prototyping purposes.
Working from the latest Solidworks 3D CAD software, or even a rough sketch off the back of a fag packet, these talented alloy artisans can produce anything as one-off. Whether it be a set of titanium wheel nuts for a Bugatti EB110 or, as you see here, a custom fuel tank for GMS Design’s Time Attack car, which includes essential safety features like internal baffling and rollover valves. This was fabricated precisely to the customer’s drawings to create a part that literally dropped into the car for easy fitment.
Commenting on this lesser known facet of the company. Managing Director Peter Miles said, ‘Forge started with a small group of talented fabricators making unique, high quality parts. Since then we have invested heavily in the very latest production technology and CNC machinery to allow us to produce in volume, whilst maintaining our quality ethos - but we still relish the challenge of creating something totally unique for specialist applications.’
So whatever your fabrication requirements, it’s definitely worth giving Forge Motorsport a call. If you can think it, they can make it.
