They can be forged or cast, normally smaller sizes are generally forged in most valve types and larger cast. The only mandatory method I know of would be clients specifications which would typically say where specified forged substitution of casting is not permitted without prior company approval. Additional testing is usually required with casting to detect any flaws.
