What Does Stahl Specialty Do?

Stahl Specialty Company produces aluminum cast components engineered to perform in environments where corrosion resistance is required. This is achieved through alloy selection, casting control, and finishing processes.

Capabilities include:

  • Permanent mold aluminum casting for repeatable production
  • Semi-permanent mold casting for complex and cored geometries
  • Alloy selection to support corrosion resistance
  • CNC machining for precision-critical features
  • Surface finishing including powder coating and other treatments
  • Heat treating, impregnation, and secondary operations
  • Assembly and value-added services
  • Inspection and material verification using spectrometer analysis

Components can be delivered as raw castings, machined parts, or fully finished products depending on application requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes aluminum corrosion resistant?

Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer that helps resist corrosion, which can be enhanced through alloy selection and surface finishing.

Can aluminum be used in outdoor environments?

Yes. Aluminum performs well in outdoor and moisture-exposed environments, especially when combined with protective finishes.

What industries use corrosion resistant aluminum castings?

Common industries include marine, transportation, industrial equipment, and infrastructure.

Are these components machined after casting?

Yes. CNC machining is used to achieve required tolerances and functional performance.

What production volumes can be supported?

Production typically ranges from 500 to over 2,000,000 parts depending on the program.
