Straight Bushings 
When it comes to heavy equipment and industrial machinery, degradation is commonplace.
Infrastructure Industry Casted Metal Parts
Without roads, bridges, buildings, and water systems, societies would be drastically different. Components such as structural bearings that support loads and absorb stresses are pivotal for long-term infrastructure viability.
Boost infrastructure performance with assistance from U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine a structural bearing manufacturer. As a trusted infrastructure industry castings manufacturer, we specialize in producing cast metal parts that enhance structural integrity and longevity of public and private works applications at home and abroad.
Making structures stronger
U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine produces cast infrastructure parts that stand up to vibration, sudden impacts, extreme temperatures, and corrosion. Consequently, structures are strengthened and reinforced, improving longevity and safety. Here are typical items we manufacture:
Straight Bushings
Liners
As heavy materials pass through minerals processing equipment, components begin to wear.
Screw Down Nut Blanks
Without nuts to hold things together, heavy equipment would fall apart.
Gear Blanks / Worm Gear Blanks
Gears are toothed, mechanical transmission elements used to transfer motion and power between components.
Ring
Cast rings are found all around us, from jet engines to military equipment.
Washer
Heavy equipment and machines are essential for completing industrial functions on time and within budget.
Thrust Collar
Heavy equipment success and failure sometimes comes down to the ability to withstand loads repeatedly.
Cylinder
Whether lifting substantial loads or crushing hard minerals, heavy machinery must tolerate extreme forces repeatedly.
Shaft Sleeves
In industrial applications, pumps and compressors are relied upon to power critical devices.
Tapered Bushings
Unmitigated friction can bring any industrial application to a halt. Protect heavy equipment against wear with tapered bushings from U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine.
Spider Bushings
Mining and materials-handling operators often must reduce raw material sizes to create something sellable.
Split Bushings
When it comes to heavy machinery, unaddressed friction can be catastrophic.
Flange Bushings
The ability to withstand loads repeatedly is critical for heavy machinery. Boost equipment performance with flange bushings from U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine.
Eccentric Bushings
Sometimes, being unbalanced better. Take your application to new performance levels with eccentric bushings from U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine.
We’re a single-source casting facility. Every casting step is performed in-house under the supervision of a qualified engineering team. Our capabilities include:
- Research & Design

Why use cast metal components on your infrastructure project?
Foundry casting is an excellent way to source custom products when CNC fabrication won’t cut it. Cast metal alloys can be produced in complex shapes, eliminating the need for assembly of many parts. A one-piece construction increases structural integrity.
Infrastructure castings come in various sizes and configurations. Typical parts for this sector are:
- Bridge Bearings
- Cable Hangers
- Node Junctions
- Custom Volumetrically Complex Shapes
- Trusses
- Spanks
- Sleeves
Infrastructure industry casted metal parts are perfect for many applications. Examples include:
- High-rises
- Bridges
- Tunnels
- Public Transit Applications
- Highway Overpasses
- Schools
- Mid-rises
- Arenas
- Hospitals
- Manufacturing Sites
- Power Plants
- Stadiums
- Water Treatment Facilities
- Commercial Buildings
- Multi-Family Housing
- Railways
- Pedestrian Walkways
- Universities
Infrastructure casting solutions
As a leading infrastructure industry castings manufacturer, U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine produces cast parts of all sizes. Our specialty is large cast products tailored to client specifications. We utilize static casting and centrifugal casting techniques and have the following capabilities:
- Castings up to 35,000 pounds
- Lengths of up to 80 inches for centrifugally cast parts
- Outside diameters as large as 158 inches for centrifugally cast parts
- No size limit for statically cast parts
Our facility contains a machine shop, which enables us to deliver finished castings with precise dimensions. By eliminating time-consuming off-site secondary processing steps, client supply chains are simplified. The shop contains advanced CNC equipment capable of machining workpieces with:
- Outside diameters of 150 inches
- Lengths of 80 inches
- Tolerances are +/- .001 inches
Premium materials, safer public works projects
A finished structure is much more than walls and flooring finishes. Its safety and performance depend upon components that support loads, absorb stresses, withstand wear, and combat corrosion. To endure these conditions, components must be manufactured from quality materials. As a leading infrastructure industry castings manufacturer, U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine helps you choose the best metal alloys for your application. Materials used often include: Bronze And Highly Leaded Bronze Copper, Stainless Steel-Aluminum, and Nickel. Additional metal alloys can be used to make infrastructure industry casted metal parts upon request.
Your infrastructure partner
Critical infrastructure functionality is only as good as the components from which it’s made. At U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine, quality is always on our minds.
A strict quality management system ensures every casted component meets applicable industry standards or client specifications. Our team can turnaround rough parts as quickly as two weeks and finished pieces as fast as eight weeks, depending on lead time and other factors.
