Bronze cast - Import export

After casting the Bronze, our chisels work on the Bronze (or aluminum, brass, etc.) using a series of techniques and tools. Imperfections and dirt are removed from the surface of the sculptures and if sculptures are cast in several parts, the welds are touched up. The surface finish can take several forms: Patina, or leaving the color of the metal visible. Some customers prefer to polish the surface until it looks like a mirror.

Self-tapping threaded inserts for making high-strength, wear-free, vibration resistant screw connections in materials with low shear strength such as aluminium and aluminium alloys, brass, bronze, cast iron, duro and thermoplastics. The threaded inserts are tapered at the bottom and have a cutting slot. By screwing in they cut their own threads inside a receiver hole. This guarantees a completely secure and firm anchoring in the host material. Internal thread D1 acc. to ISO 6H. The threaded inserts with cutting slot spring slightly inwards in the slot region in some materials. This results in a screw locking effect. If this is not desired, we recommend the threaded inserts with a cutting bore.
