Our custom products - the heart of our business . We work with customers at every stage of the design and engineering process to ensure a quality product that is delivered on time, every time.

Our aluminum alloy or zinc alloy castings are done in small, medium, or large runs, and we can deliver either raw castings or completely finished parts - whatever you need. 

Custom Castings uses the latest, state of the art CNC Machining technology to deliver our parts better, faster, and with consistently superior quality. Whether a product requires milling, turning, or any other machining process, we have the expertise and the equipment to deliver on today’s tightest tolerances.

Through the use of a flexible, automated machining cell, we are able to minimize change over times resulting in the ability to machine small batches of castings quickly and efficiently.

Custom Castings offers a wide range of coating options to suit any application. These include Thermoplastic, Chromate Conversion, Powdercoating, Liquid Coating, Waterworks Coatings, Bakeware Coatings, Teflon® / Fluoropolymer.

Coatings Detail expandcollapse

• Thermoplastic
  Thermoplastic coatings are commonly used for playground equipment, fire hydrants, and transportation equipment because of its good UV stability, excellent corrosion, and abrasion resistance.
• Chromate Conversion
  Chromating of aluminum is an economical replacement for anodizing and provides an excellent pre-treatment for powder paint.
• Powdercoating
  Custom Castings handles small to medium run powder coating. Surface preparation can range from five stage phosphate wash, chromate conversion, or grit blasting depending upon your specifications.
• Liquid Coating
  Liquid coatings can range from aesthetic polyurethanes to industrial epoxies.
• Waterworks Coatings
  Waterworks coatings can range from fusion-bonded epoxies to Teflon® coatings that are applicable to drinking water to waste water applications.
• Bakeware Coatings
  Our non-stick FDA and CFIA approved coatings offer improved cost and product efficiencies while reducing costly equipment maintenance.
• Teflon® / Fluoropolymer
  Teflon® coatings can meet the demands of low friction, abrasion and corrosion resistant, non-stick, and high temperature resistant applications.

 
Masking and plugging solutions are available.

We offer a large stock of powders and access to many different suppliers. Custom Castings offers many years experience in preparing panels and paperwork for first article inspections, and we work with our customers to establish inspection methods to suit your demands.

Whether it’s designing a permanent mold, re-engineering a part to make it more efficient to manufacture, or helping you solve a unique design challenge, our skilled and experienced engineering team gets the job done. We can deliver the support you need to see your castings evolve from ideas right through to the finished product.

We partner with our customers designers and engineers through our concurrent engineering processes.
