Reduce the weight of your ductile iron parts by 50%.Eck has been pouring aluminum since 1948 and is known asan innovator of cast advanced alloys. One specialty is A206.Using low cost sand tools and foundry practices, Eck can reducethe weight of your component and provide strength and ductilitysimilar to forged aluminum.

A206 has successfully been used in applications for aftermarketautomotive, combat vehicles, military vehicle armoring, marineracing and top fuel racing.

High Strength Aluminum • Typically Deliver 30–50% Weight Reduction •

Alloying & Metal Matrix Composites • Engine Components •

For applications that require improved performance atcontinuous or intermittent elevated temperatures, Eck hasan alloy solution for you. Al-Cu alloy systems, such asA206 and A242, continue to deliver excellent propertiesup to nearly 250 C̊. For even higher temperature applica-tions, alloys containing Scandium, Zirconium, Vanadiumand Chromium with or without ceramic reinforcementsare available. Eck is engaged in research of very high temperature alloys, which use nano-reinforcements to drive high temperature performance.
