Secondary Processing Costs - Continued

Impregnation

  • Impregnation - process in which an organic material is forced into the surface pores of a casting

  • Cost can be minimized by pressure testing all castings and impregnating only those that do not meet specifications

Surface Finishing
  • Variety of surface finishes can be applied to provide decorative effects, corrosion protection, or increased hardness and wear resistance

  • Costs are equivalent to those for alternative materials and processes
