CLEANING

All cast iron components and bodies are burned in an air oven for degreasing.  Once all oils and metal particles are burned, the castings are placed in a shot peen machine, charged with specially manufactured soft shot, to clean the castings to its original manufactured appearance.  This process is environmentally safe and does not use chemicals that are harmful to the environment.

Quality control checks all castings and surfaces to assure no particles remain, and that all surfaces meet the required finish to seal.  Surfaces with any marks or scratches are put on a lapping machine or one of our resurfacing machines.
