            |  FOUNDRY :- 
 Our Bentonite serves as an economical bonding material in 
			the molding processes associated with the metal casting industry. 
			Bentonite, when mixed with foundry molding sands, forms a pliable 
			bond with the sand granules. Impressions are formed into the face of 
			the Bentonite/sand mixtures. Molten metal is pored into the 
			impressions at temperatures exceeding 2,800 F. The unique bonding 
			characteristic of Bentonite insures the durability of the mold 
			during these high temperatures. Once the process is complete, the 
			Bentonite/sand mold can then be broken away from the casting face 
			and reused.
