Sand Casting

Sand casting produces industry leading metal castings using a mold usually made from sand formed around a replica of the object, also called a pattern, to be cast and is removed once the sand has been compacted.

Materials for Sand casting available from Stone industries include Bronze & Brass.

Bronze castings are used in the production of machines whose parts must have good sliding properties and be resistant to seawater and chemical corrosion. This group of materials covers a wide range of metals, such as Tin bronze, Aluminum Bronze, Gunmetal, Leaded tin bronze, etc. Bronze castings are used not only when dry lubrication and great strength are required, but also offer good machinability and finishability.

Brass castings are preferred in residential and commercial construction due to the natural resistance to rust and corrosion. Brass is widely used for household appliances and plumbing fittings. You may not realize it, but you are probably surrounded by brass all day long.
