China OEM custom alloy steel castings by lost wax investment casting process. Carbon steel, low alloy steel, and tool steel castings are used in several industrial applications and environments. With their numerous grades, steel and their alloys can be heat-treated to improve its yield and tensile strength; and, adjust hardness or ductility to the engineer's application needs or desired mechanical properties.
