Torsion Bars

We manufacture bespoke forged torsion that are used in Locomotive, Commercial, Defence, and Off-Highway applications.

Brooks Forgings is a leading UK manufacturer of bespoke forged torsion bars, engineered to enhance vehicle stability by reducing body roll in demanding applications across locomotive, commercial, defence, and off-highway sectors.

In-house capabilities, which include forging, bending, machining, torsion testing, and pre-setting, enable the production of customised torsion bars ranging from 25mm to 80mm in diameter and up to 6 meters in length, ensuring precision and performance tailored to exact customer specifications.

Our production is fully supported by in-house test and inspection facilities that cover the production of jigs and gauges, and conducting hardness, tensile, and coating thickness tests.

We are the only UK company with torsion bar duty cycle and pre-setting (scragging) capability up to 80mm diameter and 2.8 meter length.
