Questions

Casting and foundry FAQ

Can I request a replacement for a broken casting?

Send photos, dimensions and the old part if available. Ask whether the foundry can quote a replacement and what pattern work is needed.

What should the quote separate?

Ask for pattern work, casting, machining and finishing to be listed separately. Confirm who owns and stores the pattern after payment.
