There used to be a steel and coal dealer around the corner.Unfortunately, what works again at the corner shop and is making a comeback is not available for raw materials for forging.
We have a well-stocked steel warehouse with the most important steels.Specialties such as butter and pure iron are almost only available from us in smaller quantities.
You can get aluminum, bronze and tin by the kilo.
When it comes to forging coal and coke, we pay attention to the best quality and try to ensure this is consistent.
Special brass ECOCAST ® - cuts #Varinfo
lead-free (max. 0.02% Pb), heavy-duty special brass,
good corrosion resistance and machinability.
Ideal for cast parts by sand casting, permanent mold casting, low-pressure casting
Advantages:
high strength
easy to cast
easy to machine
easy to cold and hot form
corrosion-resistant
recyclable
lead-free
We sell the brass in cut pieces of different sizes and weights.
Dimensions range from approx. 70x60x40 to approx. 70x70x25 mm.
The appearance may vary depending on the batch.
Highly stable
Its grain finer ensures an extremely fine grain. This enables an even distribution of forces across the entire structure. Result: strength and hardness even with thin, weight-reducing wall thicknesses, which are otherwise only known from steel.
Better castability
Due to its fine-grained structure, Ecocast is ideal for filigree components.
Reduced waste
Wherever you have previously had to rely on gunmetal for filigree shapes, the high waste of this conventional material is no longer necessary - with Ecocast.
Excellent machinability
Ecocast and its special chemical composition also make post-processing of cast parts safe, precise and economical by machining, grinding, polishing or coating.
First-class corrosion resistance
Fine-grained structure through and through - this also means minimal dezincification depth on the surface through contact, oxidation or cleaning.
The future is lead-free
Secure your advantage: With Ecocast, you can design and equip your products for tomorrow today. In many countries and for various customers, strict regulations on the use of lead-free materials already apply.
Universal
Ecocast can be cast in both ingot molds and sand. The material is standardized in EN 1982 under CC768S.

Alleima® 12C27M, still produced in swedish Sandviken, is a martensitic stainless chromium steel developed for the manufacture of kitchen tools with high demands on wear- and corrosion resistance properties. After heat treatment the grade is characterized by:
High hardness which gives good wear resistance.
Good corrosion resistance
Typical applications for Alleima® 12C27M are kitchen tools, such as different types of knives and scissors, that need to tolerate dish-washing.
carbon content 0,53 %, for hardening in oil
perfect for making kitchen and outdoor knives
Knife steel 10C28Mo2, still produced in swedish Sandviken, is a martensitic stainless chromium steel developed for razor blade and knife applications with high demands on corrosion resistance. The carefully chosen chemical composition in combination with a very fine microstructure also provides a high hardness, good edge retention, toughness and edges that are easy to re-sharpen.
After heat treatment the grade is characterized by:
Very good corrosion resistance
High hardness which gives good wear resistance
Good toughness
Typical applications for 10C28Mo2 are kitchen knives and other tools where a dishwasher-safe material is required, professional butcher knives that need to be easily resharpened, outdoor knives, medical blades and razor blades, with high requirements on corrosion resistance and toughness.
AlMgSi 0,5,
in small pieces ~ 40 x 30 x 8 mm
Old car rims, jewelry or the like can be melted down, but you never know exactly what material you have in front of you.
In many applications it is important to have a clean and homogeneous casting and for this it is important to use a base material that is as “pure” as possible.
We sell the sections by weight (per kg). 42 strips correspond to approximately one kg. Picture 2 shows about 0.4 kg in a 2 kg crucible (the crucible is not included).
The dimensions of the strips may vary.
