A big thanks to Russ, our fix-it guy!

Russ subcontracts for our machine shop, and when something needs mending, making or modifying, he’s usually the first person we call.

He’s also handy with a saw. Russ built this crate and lid from scratch and designed the little logo on the front: a butler holding an arrow, which nods to how our name came about. W.H. Butler & Sons was founded in 1922 and merged with Arrow Castings in 2003.

Filled with snacks and topped with a “Foundry Fuel” lid, it’s proof that the skills on our shop floor go well beyond casting and machining.

Choosing the Right Aluminium Alloy Matters

The performance of a casting starts long before production begins.

Selecting the correct aluminium alloy affects strength, corrosion resistance, machinability, and long-term reliability. Alloys such as LM6, LM25 and LM27 offer different properties to suit different engineering requirements.

Whether your project requires lightweight durability or high structural performance, the right alloy helps you achieve better results with fewer compromises.
