Critical Metal Components For Energy Applications
MetalTek produces critical metal castings for demanding energy applications where heat, wear, corrosion, pressure, and long-term reliability are key considerations. Our capabilities support nuclear power, oil and gas, renewable energy, and other power generation applications, with components ranging from pumps and valves to pressure-boundary components and other highly engineered parts.
MetalTek's manufacturing capabilities include centrifugal casting, investment casting, sand casting, and additive manufacturing, supported by a broad range of alloys and extensive metallurgical expertise. We work with customers to select the process and material combination best suited to their application, performance requirements, and operating environment.

Solutions
MetalTek can meet the growing demand in the energy field. We produce flow meter bodies, jack nuts, oil field pipe clamps, and many other metal casted parts. Below is a breakdown of the top metal castings that we provide.
Bi-Metal Casting
To offer other options for containers that would deliver both integrity and long life, MetalTek devised and produced developmental castings for canisters that were cast of both aluminum bronze and copper.
Nuclear Fusion Casting
Huge machinery, such as the “Z-Machine”, can create temperatures of 2.9 million °F (1.6 million °C) for fractions of a second.
Bushings For Bridges And Infrastructure
MetalTek provides bushings for bridges and other infrastructure applications to an excess of 15′.
Stellarator Fusion Power
The Stellarator’s unique shaping and temperature demands on the winding form used to contain the complex magnetic field necessitated new alloy and process development.
