Ever wonder what the complete process of forging looks like? There's a 14-step process, and it starts here with raw aluminum. Each Apex wheel starts with 6061 aluminum alloy that’s been extruded into a log-shaped form, then x-rayed for impurities. Each extrusion is 30 to 40 feet long and weighs 1,700 to 2,500 pounds. It’s surprising how much mass goes into making a lightweight wheel. Want to see the full forging process? Read more about how forged wheels are made on our website: https://bit.ly/4

Step 5 of the forging process: Heat treatment. After the blanks are flow-formed, they go through a three step T6 heat treatment process where the blanks are heated to a high temperature for several hours, then put through a quenching process where they are rapidly cooled by submerging them in a liquid bath. The blanks are then artificially aged by reheating them for several hours and allowing them to cool naturally. This process maximizes the wheel’s material strength by improving the aluminum's
