Metal supplier’s CNC machines fill custom part orders
American Iron, the country’s source of Versa-Bar and continuous cast bronze has a wide array of CNC machines ready to provide the parts you need. Our warehouse in Wisconsin is also the location of our machine shop, letting us create high-quality, finished components ready for use.
Our selection of lathes, CNC machines, and metal saws allows us to craft almost any part out of continuous cast iron or bronze.
From simple bearings and washers to complex helical gears and rotary actuator piston sleeves, our CNC machines and machinists can make exactly the part you need. Coupling the inherent strengths of continuous cast metal with the tight tolerances our machine shop produces means we're more than just a metal stock distributor; we’re a full-service finished part supplier.
If you don’t need a finished part, American Iron can rough out a component for finishing by your in-house machinists. Just let us know what you need, and we’ll make it.
When is continuous cast metal the best choice for your part?
Lower costs and fewer defects make continuous cast iron a great steel alternative. Where Versa-Bar really shines is in the reduced machining time. Versa Bar’s superior metallurgy allows machinists to drill, turn and mill it much faster than most other materials.
Parts requiring significant amounts of machining benefit the most from continuous cast iron.
Machining times are dramatically reduced when using Versa-Bar. Components requiring several minutes of work or whose material determines the top work speed will be produced faster than continuous cast iron. You will make more parts in less time, increasing your overall shop efficiency and decreasing the cost per part. American Iron will make your business more profitable by supplying higher quality, and lower cost parts expertly machined out of Versa-Bar continuous cast iron.
