Mullite Pouring Cups
Metsch pour cups are produced from high grade mullite compositions tested and qualified by aerospace sector foundries for over (50) years. Designed for in-service durability. All features contribute to improving casting yields by assisting the foundry to protect the mold during handling throughout the process and by avoiding inclusions during the pour. The Thousand Series line of pouring cups is available without a tooling charge. If a Thousand Series model does not meet your requirement, we will assist with the design/build of the custom pour cup shape for your mold and pouring requirements.
