Centrifugal casting is a process used for components that must function continuously under pressure, high temperatures, friction, or corrosion. The key advantage lies in the way the material solidifies: molten steel or iron is poured into a rotating mold and solidifies due to the rotation at approximately 100 times the acceleration due to gravity.
