The Bracket that Tells It All
The Bracket that Tells It All. Hardware brackets play a vital role on the things that people use every day, may it be a machine or simple equipments. These brackets are designed to ensure that different parts of the equipment are perfectly in place and do not move. This is the reason why hardware brackets should be strong enough to handle the pressure and strength of the whole equipment. With this in mind, many manufacturers are using aluminum as hardware brackets because of its durability. Aluminum is also light in weight and cheaper as compared to steel.
Kinetic Die Casting Company makes aluminum hardware brackets in various shapes and sizes. One advantage of using aluminum as hardware bracket is the fact that manufacturers can make a near net shape wherein no welding or assembling is needed. This is because aluminum hardware brackets can be die-casted and the whole shape of the bracket can be molded in a single procedure. This makes the brackets stronger as compared to the steel brackets that need welding and can cause weakness in due time. Also, aluminum hardware brackets are lighter than steel brackets. The actual size of an aluminum hardware bracket is just a third of the steel hardware bracket. Lastly, since aluminum is easy to acquire, using aluminum hardware brackets is much cheaper and more economical.

Cascade Die Casting/ Pacific is another example of how difficult it is for a die casting manufacturing company to stay in business in California. Cascade had a long history of being a great supplier here in California and Cascade Die Casting/ Pacific will be missed by their former employees, their suppliers and their customers who need aluminum die casting parts.
Kinetic Die Casting continues to be strong while other die casting companies are closing down or selling out.
