Stainless steel investment castings have highly desirable qualities such as corrosion resistance, high strength and low maintenance, and have a wide range of applications:
Food processing: Stainless steel investment castings are widely used in the food processing industry due to their corrosion resistance. Typical components might include pantry, coffee maker components, and metal grinder components.
Marine Applications: Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, heat and wear, making it ideal for marine applications.
Automotive: Typical automotive components include grilles, trim, converters and exhaust components.
Medical Devices: Medical devices often require tight tolerances and a high level of dimensional accuracy. Stainless steel investment cast components include dental and surgical tools, operating room equipment, implantable components, MRI machinery, X-ray equipment, stretchers and wheelchairs.
Pipe Fittings: Typical stainless steel investment casting applications for pipe fittings include elbows, nipples, tees, and casing.
