Fedele Sand Casting Services
Finding a reliable sand casting company in the United States doesn’t need to be difficult or expensive. Redstone Manufacturing has sand casting facilities in Australia, Canada, India, Switzerland, and Brazil. We help you secure the best rates and lead time for your sand casting job. We are dedicated to quality and meet ISO9001 standards. We help companies reduce the risk of working with foreign manufacturers, while lowering costs.
Sand Casting Services
Sand casting can be carried out in several different ways. Different minerals can be used as the sand, and different binding agents (such as clay or resin) provide sand molds with different properties and capabilities. Listed below are the types of sand for sand casting:
– Green Sand
– Silica Sand
– Resin Sand
Sand casting excels in large-part production, outperforming many other casting methods. It provides engineers with a wide range of metal alloy choices and part sizes at competitive prices. The process boasts low setup costs and allows for inexpensive mold modifications. These advantages have made sand casting the go-to method for the aerospace sector, while also finding applications in construction, automotive, manufacturing, and marine industries.
– Engine blocks
– Pipes
– Nuts
– Landing gear
– Pulleys
– Cylinder heads
– Machine tool bases
Various metal material can be used for sand casting depending on the application and desired properties of the final product. We use the following materials in our sand castings:
– Alloy Steel
– Aluminum
– Brass, Bronze & Copper
– Cast Iron
– Grey, Ductile & White Iron
– Magnesium
– Stainless Steel
The main advantages of this casting process include:
– Lower costs for low-volume production runs
– Suitability for fabricating large parts and components
– Ability to use ferrous or non-ferrous metals
– Shorter lead time compared to other processes
Sand casting is applied for the fabrication of a wide range of parts. A small selection of them is described below:
– Air Compressor Pistons
– Bearings
– Blowers & Impellers
– Bushings
– Cams
– Electronic Equipment
– Engine Crankcases
– Engine Oil Pans

Sand Casting Faqs
Sand casting is a metal forming process where molten metal is poured into a sand mold, allowed to solidify, and then the mold is broken apart to reveal the cast part.
What types of metals can be sand cast? Answer: Most metals can be sand cast, including iron, steel, aluminum, copper alloys (like brass and bronze), and even precious metals like gold and silver.
The main components are the cope (top half of the mold), drag (bottom half), pattern (used to create the mold cavity), cores (for internal features), and gating system (for metal flow).
Low tooling costs, ability to cast large and complex parts, suitable for low to medium production runs, and versatility in terms of castable materials.
Lower dimensional accuracy compared to some other processes, potential for porosity, slower production rates than die casting, and rougher surface finish.
Sand is packed around a pattern in a mold box. The pattern is then removed, leaving a cavity in the shape of the desired part.
Common types include silica sand, chromite sand, and zircon sand. The choice depends on factors like metal temperature and desired surface finish.
Yes, sand casting can produce fairly complex shapes, especially with the use of cores. However, very intricate designs might require additional machining.
Sand casting is better for larger parts and lower production runs, with lower tooling costs. Die casting offers faster production, better accuracy, and smoother surfaces, but has higher initial costs.
