I have a project that will require the casting of approximately 12,000 pieces. Each of the castings will weigh about 500 pounds (By fabricated steel estimate), and will conform to the following specification:
· C = 0.05 – 0.20%
· Si = 0.40 – 0.60%
· Mn = 0.60 – 0.80%
· P = 0.06%
· S = 0.05%
Vendors shall quote the above material with an alternate recommended material for the application (i.e.: ASTM A27/Grade 40-70).
These castings will be part of a larger fabricated assembly and will be used without machining. Sand casting should produce sufficient part quality.
I am looking for a casting source that is geographically located within a ??? radius of Greenville SC.
