Stainless Steel Castings
Stainless steel is a family of iron-based alloys composed of high amounts of chromium, which is sanitary, resists rust, and withstands extreme temperatures. This material also has a long cycle life and is recyclable, making it environmentally friendly.
There are over 150 grades of stainless steel, a handful of which are used in everyday applications. Performance characteristics vary by grade, but common traits include.
Performance Characterisitcs
- Corrosion resistance
- Strength
- Easy to clean
- High-temperature resistance
- Simple to sterilize
- Low-temperature resistance
- Aesthetic appeal
- Improved weldability
- Low weight
- Strong formability
- Magnetism resistance, in some cases
Cast stainless steel components done right
U.S. Bronze Foundry & Machine specializes in manufacturing custom, large stainless steel castings for heavy equipment and machinery. We’re committed to delivering quality components that meet any industry standard, customer specification, or purchase order requirement.
We manufacture stainless steel castings per client specifications with centrifugal and static casting techniques. Built-in automation and controls ensure improved precision and quality.
Large stainless steel centrifugal castings are made using centrifugal force to distribute and refine the molten material in the mold. High centrifugal force levels press the molten material against the mold wall, creating a dense tubular product.
Stainless steel parts are also produced with sand casting, a process where sand is used to create a mold. Liquid metal is added to the mold to create a component. Large sand casting stainless steel piece parts provide high performance at an affordable price point. Sand casting is cost-effective, even for low volumes, because of its low tooling cost.
