High-quality Castings Tailored to the Specialized Hardware Sector

Investment casting is an ideal process for producing components used in specialized hardware applications because it allows for the production of complex geometries, thin walls, and intricate details, resulting in finished parts with excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish. From door handles and brackets to pinions and cable anchors, our investment castings are utilized in various applications, including decorative hardware and safety equipment.

Parts Made for the Specialized Hardware Industry

With our state-of-the-art facility, advanced technology, and commitment to customer satisfaction, Franklin is your trusted partner for all your investment casting needs in the specialized hardware industry. Here are just a few of the parts we've helped make for our customers in this space.

Door Brackets
Door brackets are hardware components used to support and stabilize doors within their frames. They are often used to secure hinges or other door hardware in place.
Pinions
Pinions are gear components with toothed wheels that mesh with other gears or racks to transmit rotational motion. They are commonly used in mechanisms where precise motion control is required, such as in door or window opening systems.
Catch Bases
Catch bases are fixtures designed to hold or secure items in place. They are commonly used in specialized hardware applications to ensure the proper alignment and operation of various mechanisms.
Spacers
Spacers are components used to create a specific distance between two objects or components. They are often used to adjust the position or alignment of parts within a system, providing stability and precision.
Headlight Mounts
Headlight mounts are hardware components used to secure headlights or lighting fixtures in place. They ensure proper alignment and stability of headlights, allowing for optimal illumination and visibility.
Pivot Housings
Pivot housings are mechanisms designed to facilitate rotational movement around a fixed point or axis. They are commonly used in specialized hardware applications to allow for smooth and controlled rotation of various components.
Cable Anchors
Cable anchors are fixtures used to secure cables or wires in place. They provide stability and support for cables, preventing them from shifting or moving during operation. Cable anchors are essential for maintaining the integrity and functionality of cable-based systems in specialized hardware applications.
