Handle hot steel forgings with confidence using our lighter-duty foundry tubs that deliver the right balance of functionality and value. These durable steel containers feature perforated side panels that allow airflow and drainage for cooling hot parts. While designed for lighter-duty applications, each tub maintains the structural integrity required in industrial foundries, giving shops reliable steel containers without the expense of ultra-heavy foundry bins.
Reinforced steel sides and bottom panels withstand the repeated impact of hot steel forgings. This minimizes damage and distortion to ensure tubs maintain their shape and functionality in tough conditions. The stackable design and practical construction make them easy to handle for in-plant material flow or transport to secondary operations.
Compared to standard corrugated steel containers, these foundry tubs are built to manage the challenges of handling hot, high-density metal parts. The slight cost increase over standard containers represents a smart investment that delivers longer service life and less maintenance and replacement.
Forging companies trust these foundry tubs for consistent performance and lasting durability. They provide safe and economical storage for hot forgings, castings, and metal parts awaiting machining.
