Brass Shell Moulding Parts

We cast various Brass shell moulded parts in our foundry as it is a cost-effective way of making intricate castings. Most of these parts made at our shell moulding foundry need minimum machining and are highly cost-efficient.

Brass Shell Moulding Parts Brass Shell Moulding Parts

The key difference between Shell Mould Casting and Sand Casting is the mould. In Shell Mould Casting, the mould is a thin walled shell created by applying sand raisin mixture around the pattern. The pattern is a metal piece in the shape of the part to be cast. The pattern is reused to form multiple Shell Moulds.
