Abrasive-Form, LLC. An Aerospace Specialty Manufacturing company.
Abrasive-Form has specialized in precision grinding since 1976. Today it produces turbine blades, vanes and shrouds for the world’s largest gas turbine and aircraft engine manufacturers, using creep-feed and 5-axis CBN grinding supported by EDM and precision milling. Its blade geometries, root forms and shroud profiles serve hot-section aerospace and power applications, from heavy-duty frames for grid baseload and peaking demand to aero engines and their marine derivatives.
Creep-feed grinding capacity is the principal constraint on hot-section component supply across the gas turbine industry. Customer-funded capacity programs with two gas turbine OEMs add eight creep-feed grinders and twenty-one EDM machines through 2027, and a third Illinois facility of 37,000 square feet adds finishing, special-process and warehouse space. The company marks its fiftieth year in 2026.
