All ferrous and non ferrous alloys can be cast using the sand cast method, including gray iron, ductile iron, aluminum, brass, bronze, carbon steel, and stainless steel. Due to low cost mold patterns, Sand Casting is usually the least expensive of all the casting production processes.
The sand casting process maintains typical dimensional accuracy of ± 0.03 in., with a surface finish of 300 - 600 μin.
