Sand Castings

At Ferralloy, Inc., we offer sand casting as a low-cost method for producing both small and large parts from a wide variety of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.

Understanding Our Sand Casting Process

What is Sand Casting?

Sand casting, or sand molded casting, uses sand as the molding material to create non-reusable molds. The sand casting process is exceptionally geared for producing large-scale workpieces, and we have the resources that allow us to make high volumes of parts efficiently. With its low tooling investment, sand casting is also ideal for short-run work as well.

Our Sand Casting Process

We use green sand, as well as no-bake molds and cores to reproduce complex shapes from steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel grades, in addition to a wide variety of metals, such as aluminum, nickel, titanium, and many more. Sand casting typically yields parts with a rougher surface finish than other methods. Still, we have the resources to finish machine sand cast parts to improve the surface profile and bring dimensional tolerances to ±.003”.

Going Above and Beyond

We regularly supply both machined and rough castings to a wide range of industries. Serving the needs of companies around the globe, typical applications include impellers, valve, pump components, forging dies, support beams, and more.

We manage lot sizes in the 100 to 100,000 unit range, and we offer stocking programs that allow you to manage inventory in a more streamlined and productive manner.
