Aluminium Handles Heaven
Aluminum Handles Heaven. Aluminum handles can be seen in many buildings because they are the preferred material to be used on handles of any kind. Aluminum is a metal that is very sturdy, relatively cheap, lighter than steel, and is very easy to manufacture. They are sold by many companies worldwide and are mass produced by manufacturing plants which deal with aluminum based products. These handles can be seen in any storage area covering whether they be small or large.
Aluminum handles can be purchased in almost all hardware stores and do-it-yourself stores. In hardware stores, they have their own section which is oftentimes combined with drawer doors and other related items. In DIY stores, they also have their own section although these stores have fewer selections than hardware stores. When looking for an aluminum handle, the specifications of the area on which the handle will be attached to should be known. This is important since handles that are too large will make it difficult to open the storage area whereas handles that are too small will also give the same problem. Usually, people are able to find the aluminum handle that suits them in these stores. However, if they find that they do not like the handles in these stores, they can always look online.
Aluminum handles can be found online in several online stores and retailers. Amazon and eBay both have listings for aluminum handles. Their sources are several manufacturing companies which create these items as part of their product base. People may also visit the website of these manufacturing companies since they may sell the handles at a lower price.

Reasons To Buy American Die Casting Parts
Reasons To Buy American Die Casting Parts. American die casting parts are created through the die casting process. Basic die casting consists of injecting molten metal through high pressure under a steel mold called die. Die machines are then used in clamping an aluminum ton which is equal to the amount of allowed pressure needed in exerting the die. The machines used in the die casting process ranges from 400 tons to over 4000 tons. Regardless of size, the fundamental difference between the 2 die casting machines is the process of injecting molten metal to die.
If you based American die parts with parts produced through other processes, you will instantly see the differences. For instance, in American based die casting versus regular plastic molding, the products created in American casting have stronger parts and closer tolerances with greater durability and stability. American based products have stronger resistance and temperature extremes; that is why they are great in electrical projects. If we compare die casting with sand casting, American types produce parts which have thinner walls and closer dimensional areas or limits with smoother surfaces.
Through die casting, production and labor costs are also lowered. Against permanent molding, such a process offers the same advantages with permanent molding. The only difference with permanent molding is again with the costs. If we compare parts made through American based parts with those made through forging and stamping, the parts have more complex shapes, have cast coring holes which are not available through forging or stamping and has reduced assembly time. That is why it is better to acquire American die casting parts based on standard die casting rather than using other methods of production.

Premier Lakewood Die Casting Plant Closure
Premier Lakewood Inc. Plant To Close In May
Economy Cited As Reason; 75 Workers Affected
February 11, 2014
By Mallory Diefenbach (mdiefenbach@post-journal.com) , The Post-Journal
LAKEWOOD- Premier Lakewood Inc., a Michigan-owned company located on 201 Winchester Road in Lakewood, will be closing its doors on May 6, displacing 75 employees.
According to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification from the New York state Department of Labor, layoffs will begin on May 1 and continue through May 6. Economic reasons have been cited for the closure. Calls made to the plant on Monday were not returned.
According to a Post-Journal article from 2006, the plant has been in Lakewood since 1946. Premier Lakewood Inc. purchased the company from Lexington Die Casting in 2005. Lexington Die Casting, which had owned the plant since 1992, set to close the factory for good, leaving their remaining 45 employees out of luck. However, due to a collaborative effort between the previous owners, local development leaders and New York state officials, the jobs and factory alike were saved.
In the same 2006 Post-Journal article, Paul Brancaleon, president of the Michigan-based Premier Tool and Die Cast Corporation – which the Lakewood branch is a part of, went on record speaking of tripling Lakewood operations and stepping up production five-fold over the next three years.
Premier Lakewood takes in hundreds of tons of recycled aluminum every month, melts it down and channels it through dozen of die casters. This is then shaped into strong, light-weight parts, half for automobiles and half for other commodities.

It is sad to me to see another US Die Casting Manufacturing Company close their doors. I feel sorry for the 75 displaced workers in New York. I hope they will be able to find comparable work locally. We are experiencing growth in southern California. We wish you all the best luck for the workers and owners of Premier Die Casting Company for the future.
