 Metal in excess of that required to fill completely
the blocking or finishing forging impression of a set
of dies. Flash extends out from the body of the
forging as a thin plate at the line where the dies
meet and is subsequently removed by trimming.
Because it cools faster than the body of the
component during forging, flash can serve to
restrict metal flow at the line where dies meet, thus
ensuring complete filling of the impression
