Product Overview
The bracket combines an open-frame body, mounting sections and connecting features into a single investment cast component. Its geometry demonstrates one of the key advantages of investment casting: the ability to produce complex structural shapes without assembling multiple separately manufactured parts.
Wall thickness, mounting hole positions, fillets, local reinforcement and machining allowance can be adjusted according to the customer's drawing and functional requirements.
Integrated one-piece cast construction
Carbon steel material
Mounting ears and through holes
Open-frame structural design
Complex contours and transitions
Optional CNC machined features
Custom dimensions according to drawings
Casting & Machining
Investment casting, also known as lost wax casting, is well suited for carbon steel brackets with irregular profiles, integrated mounting features and complex transitions. The process can produce a near-net-shape casting before secondary machining is applied to critical functional areas.
For features requiring closer dimensional tolerances, CNC machining can be performed after casting and heat treatment according to the drawing specifications.
Mounting Holes · Bores · End Faces · Locating Features · Threads · Slots · Datum Surfaces
Machining allowances and datum locations can be reviewed during the engineering stage to help achieve stable dimensional relationships between cast and machined features.
The component can be manufactured through an integrated process covering casting, heat treatment, machining, surface finishing and final inspection. Production requirements are reviewed according to the drawing before tooling and mass production.

Inspection & Delivery
Carbon Steel Material
Carbon steel provides a practical balance of strength, machinability and manufacturing cost for many industrial mounting and structural hardware applications. Different carbon steel grades can be selected according to mechanical property, heat-treatment and service requirements.
Material grades, heat treatment and hardness requirements can be produced according to customer specifications and applicable standards.
Good Mechanical Strength
Suitable for many structural and mechanical applications.
Heat-Treatable Options
Mechanical properties can be adjusted according to the selected grade and heat-treatment process.
Good Machinability
Suitable for secondary machining of mounting holes and functional surfaces.
Cost-Effective for Industrial Parts
A practical material choice when stainless steel corrosion resistance is not required.
Because carbon steel requires appropriate surface protection depending on the service environment, different finishing options can be selected after casting and machining.
Black Oxide
Phosphate Coating
E-Coating
Powder Coating
Plating
Painting
Polishing or Blasting as required
Quality Control
Critical mounting dimensions, hole positions and mating features can affect assembly performance. Inspection is therefore carried out according to the customer's drawing and specified tolerances throughout production.
Spectrometer analysis can be used to verify carbon steel chemical composition.
CMM, gauges and conventional measuring equipment are used for critical dimensions and machined features.
Hardness can be checked when heat treatment or mechanical property requirements are specified.
Casting surfaces, machining quality and key drawing dimensions are inspected before shipment.
Applications
Custom carbon steel cast brackets can be used in industrial and hardware assemblies that require integrated mounting, connection or supporting features. Final geometry and material specifications are produced according to the customer's actual application.
Industrial Mounting Brackets
Structural Hardware Components
Equipment Support Assemblies
Mechanical Connection Parts

Custom Hardware Components
This mounting bracket represents one example of the custom carbon steel components that can be manufactured through investment casting and CNC machining. Dimensions, wall thickness, mounting features, material grade, heat treatment and surface finish can all be customized according to your 2D drawing or 3D model.
Before tooling, our engineering team can review casting feasibility, machining allowance, datum selection and critical dimensions to help identify potential manufacturing issues at an early stage.
Send us your drawing, 3D model, material specification and estimated quantity. Our team can review the investment casting, machining and finishing requirements and provide a manufacturing proposal for your project.
