Continuous cast iron and bronze supply programs from AIA and Versa-Bar

We offer raw and machined continuous cast iron, bronze stock, and custom components.

AIA, a Lawton Standard company, has provided high-quality metals, including Versa-Bar continuous cast iron and bronze, since 1982. We serve various industries, from fluid power to bearing manufacturing.

Since the beginning, AIA has set out to supply customers with high-quality metal products with a service-focused approach at competitive prices. We earned our place in the market through our unique, flexible customer service style.

Versa-Bar continuous cast iron sets the industry standard for new supply techniques, letting customers define how they want to receive our metal bars, tubes, plates, and cut components. This was the new purchasing trend, where suppliers were expected to be resilient and reactive to changing demand. Lean supply techniques were the new norm, and AIA's focus on this paid off.

Wisconsin-based metal supplier with East Coast and Texas warehouses and distribution centers

As part of our commitment to being the best metal stock supplier in the industry, Lawton Standard and AIA now have multiple locations to fill nationwide orders. In addition to our headquarters in Waukesha, WI, we ship orders from our warehouse and distribution center. Multiple shipping locations allow us to fill orders faster, ensuring you never run out of the continuous cast bronze and iron you need. Whether your shop is in Texas, California, Maine, or Florida, American Iron has a distribution location close by to fill your order.

American Iron has taken this unique supply approach, expanded our product line, and added more value processing, including an extensive in-house CNC machining operation. With the introduction and growth of Versa-Bar, AIA became the worldwide leader in continuous cast iron bar, tubing, and part/component manufacture. Along the way, AIA increased our ability to add savings to clients with bronze, steel, specialty castings, and precision machining services. With this core focus and a continued willingness to work with each new customer to build a cost-effective metal supply program, we will continue to grow into other markets.

Earlier this year, AIA/Versa-Bar added a new distribution warehouse in Houston, Texas. The bottom line is that we will stock what you need. AIA has a fantastic stocking program for its customers. Our Versa-Bars are perfect for various businesses, from hydraulic cylinders to bridge plugs to downhole oil tools. Versa-Bar's warehouse in Houston is located at 4591 S. Wayside Dr. Give us a call at 1-800-544-4800.
