Fresh out of the foundry, ready for service.

We’re proud to showcase these aluminium castings produced by H&A Castings for a valued customer in the food industry.

Every casting represents the work that happens behind the scenes — pattern preparation, moulding, melting, pouring, fettling, and final inspection — all focused on delivering a reliable product our customer can trust in a demanding production environment.

Supporting South African industry with quality non-ferrous castings is what we enjoy doing every day.

Thank you to our customer for choosing H&A Castings.

Some copper bushes and a copper ring completed this week by the team at H&A Castings.

Copper castings bring their own challenges in the foundry, but with the right experience and process control you can achieve a quality final product with good finish and soundness.

Copper is often selected for applications where high thermal and electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, and reliable performance are important.

Well done to the team involved in producing these components and delivering another successful order.

Mid-week momentum

At H&A Castings, every casting tells a story of precision, control, and experience—and this week, it’s an 88kg LG2 bronze bush taking the spotlight.

While a bush might seem like a straightforward component, achieving consistent quality at this size requires careful control of:
• Melt chemistry and temperature
• Mould integrity and feeding design
• Solidification to prevent shrinkage and defects
• Machining allowances to ensure final dimensional accuracy

LG2 remains a trusted material for its excellent corrosion resistance and bearing properties, making it a go-to choice across demanding industrial applications.

Not every casting needs to be complex in shape to be complex in ex*****on.

We recently produced a batch of aluminium bronze (AB) wear plates — simple, rectangular components at first glance, but far from simple in practice.

Aluminium bronze brings a unique set of challenges. Controlling the chemistry is critical to achieve the required mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Oxidation management during melting and pouring is essential, and gating design must be carefully considered to minimise turbulence and avoid inclusions. On top of that, flat plate geometries demand tight control of solidification to prevent shrinkage defects, distortion, and uneven cooling.

This is where experience makes the difference.

At H&A Castings, we’ve learned that mastering these “simple” geometries builds the discipline needed for more complex work. It strengthens our approach to melt control, mould preparation, feeding systems, and overall process stability.

Because in foundry work, precision in the basics is what enables confidence in complexity.

There’s something timeless about cast brass.

These railway name plaques are more than just identifiers — they’re a tribute to the rich history of rail and the craftsmanship that has supported it for generations. Each plaque carries a sense of legacy, produced using traditional casting methods while maintaining the precision and quality expected today.

At H&A Castings, we’re proud to play a small part in preserving that heritage — creating pieces that are built to last and designed to be remembered.

Not all castings are created equal.

At H&A Castings, we don’t just produce simple shapes — we take on complex geometries that demand precision, experience, and the right foundry practices.

This recent aluminium casting is a great example of what can be achieved when design, patternmaking, and process control come together. From intricate internal features to tight dimensional requirements, our team ensures every detail is delivered to specification.

Whether it’s straightforward components or technically challenging castings, we partner with our customers to turn ideas into high-quality finished products.

If you’re looking for a foundry that can handle complexity with confidence, let’s talk.
