Heat Treating Department Pacific Alloy, Los Angeles, CaliforniaCasting Production Facility
Pacific Alloy Casting Co. employs a computer-controlled, state-of-the-art, heat treat furnace to guarantee exacting requirements and insure our parts meet industry specifications. Heat treating offers a valuable, versatile method to extend the consistency and range of properties of iron and steel castings well beyond the limits of those produced in the as-cast condition. Heat treating processes and terminology for heat treating cast irons are similar to those for steels. The heat treating processes most commonly performed on iron castings are: austenitizing, annealing, normalizing, through hardening (heating, quenching, and tempering), and stress relieving. If you need a provider of high-quality cast iron and cast steel products, call Pacific Alloy Castings Co. at 562- 928-1387 or email sales@pacificalloy.com |

It is difficult for a foundry to be "Green" because we use so much
electricity but we do try our best to use power efficiently. As part of
our efforts to reduce our "Carbon Footprint", we are partnering with
Power It Solutions and Southern California Edison to upgrade our
electrical management controls with the newest generation of demand
balancing equipment from Power It Solutions. Their system monitors and
balances all large electric motors and electric melting furnaces for
optimum production to reduce electrical demand peaks without curtailing
production.
