See Forgeline at the PRI Show This Week (Dec 12-14) Booth #547
 

Forgeline is exhibiting at the PRI (Performance and Racing Industry) Show this week, December 12-14, in Indianapolis, IN. Our booth is #547. We'll be showcasing our newest Competition Series racing wheels (the one piece forged monoblock GTD1, GS1R, and DP1), our newest one piece forged monoblock street wheels (SC1, SE1, CF1, RB1, and GT1), and the new three piece Concave Series MS3C.

If you'll be at the show, then we invite you to please stop by and see us. Thanks!

Here is a shot of the Forgeline booth at PRI this morning, before the crowds rolled in.

On the left in the photo are 2 racks of one piece forged monoblock street wheels. Then two racks of three piece Concave Series wheels. All four racks on the right are Competition Series racing wheels, a mix of three piece and one piece forged monoblock.

You can't tell from this angle, but the three pillars in the front are demonstrating three stages of the one piece forged monoblock wheel manufacturing process. The one on the left is a raw 100+ lb. forging. The one in the middle has been turned on a lathe to look a little more like a wheel (but still has no spokes or anything yet). And the one on the right has been milled into an almost-finished 18 lb. wheel that is ready to go to powder coat.

A few shots from PRI on Thursday. Richard Petty stopped by and visited. It was very cool.

Our sincere thanks to Richard Petty (The King) for stopping by to visit and talk about wheels. Richard is a great guy and we really enjoyed his visit.

Yes, this really is Forgeline sales manager, Steve Schardt, trying on Richard Petty's hat and sunglasses. We can't take this guy anywhere...

Stage two of the one piece forged monoblock manufacturing process. The raw forging has been machined on a lathe and is starting to become a little bit more recognizable as a wheel.

Stage three of the one piece forged monoblock manufacturing process. The turning from stage two has now been machined on the mill, weighs only 18 lbs, and could be bolted to a vehicle. It is ready for finish and power coat.
