Sand Castings
We currently produce sand castings in South Korea, China and
Vietnam. We cast ferrous and non-ferrous alloys including grey,
malleable and ductile iron, brass, stainless steel and aluminum.
We utilize foundries with coal-fired cupolas, hand-packed
molds and coal-fired heat treat furnaces when best suited for
characteristics of a given part. When warranted, we have foundries
with electric fired cupolas, mechanized sand molding and electric
furnaces for heat treat processes.

Lost Foam Castings
Similar to investment castings except foam is used for the pattern instead
of wax. We have lost form foundries located both in China and Vietnam.
Our past experience in lost foam casting includes fire hydrants and
valve bodies in grey, malleable and ductile iron.

Secondary Operations on Casted Parts
Hardware Components can add additional value by performing secondary
operations on your cast part. We have years of experience in the machining,
plating, polishing and other surface finish treatments. We specialize in mirror polished finishes on aluminum die castings and stainless steel investment casting.
Chrome plated zinc die castings are another area of our expertise, including mirror polish or vibratory tumbled surface treatment. Duplex nickel chrome plating is available for additional protection in hash environmental applications.
