Class Code Information

Phraseology

Tool Mfg. – NOC – Drop or Machine Forged – Forging
Note:  

Includes trimming and the incidental manufacturing of handles.

Description

Code 3110 applies to employers engaged in manufacturing machine forged products. Steel, non-ferrous or alloy metals in various bar and rod forms are cut to length and heated in furnaces. The heated stock is then rough forged with drop hammers, reheated and forged to final shape or form with the appropriate dies or patterns. The forgings are then cooled, trimmed or ground as needed and then tempered by heat treating and quenched in oil or water baths.

This classification also applies to employers engaged in manufacturing tools which are utilized in industries such as construction, agricultural, logging, mining, oil or artesian well. Garden tools such as hand shovels, picks, rakes, pitchforks, hoes and other tools of a similar nature fall within the scope of this classification. Although most products are of a forged nature, this classification is not restricted to forged products. The preceding work involves the use of drop hammers, stamping presses, plate punches and woodworking machinery. The finishing operations involve lathes, drill presses, shapers, grinders, belt sanders and perhaps shot blasting cleaning machinery.
