Buyer FAQ
Construction Equipment Casting Questions
Direct answers for OEM, repair, and replacement-part buyers preparing a heavy equipment casting RFQ.
Can JK Casting make custom cast steel brackets and housings for construction equipment from my drawing?
JK Casting supplies drawing-based construction and heavy equipment castings, including brackets, housings, hubs, mounts and linkage parts, in carbon steel, ductile iron and grey iron. Send drawings or a sample with material and quantity through the online RFQ form. For machined housings also see the machined housing RFQ guide. Listed part families are not a stock catalog.
What construction equipment castings can JK Casting review?
JK Casting reviews drawing-based hubs, bearing housings, gearbox and drivetrain housings, brackets, mounts, linkages, covers, and other cast and machined parts when buyers provide drawings, 3D files, samples, or technical requirements.
Can JK Casting review replacement castings from a sample or worn part?
Yes. A replacement project can start from a physical sample, worn-part photos, equipment model, mating dimensions, and service information. Final feasibility depends on the available evidence, material, geometry, quantity, machining, and inspection requirements.
What information helps a heavy equipment casting quotation?
Send a 2D drawing or 3D model when available, plus material, quantity, critical dimensions, machining scope, coating, application or duty cycle, inspection requirements, and target delivery plan.
Is this a stock construction equipment parts catalog?
No. JK Casting supplies custom, drawing-based parts for OEM, repair, and replacement programs. Each RFQ is reviewed before quotation; listed part families do not confirm stock or automatic manufacturability.
What materials do you use for construction equipment castings?
Regular materials are carbon steel, ductile iron and grey iron. The grade on your drawing governs. Bucket teeth are cast in low-alloy wear-resistant steel or high-manganese steel. Stainless steel and other alloys are reviewed part by part.
Can you supply castings machined and ready to install?
Yes. A casting can be supplied raw, or CNC-machined on the bores, faces and mounting features shown on your drawing. JK Casting machines castings it supplies. Machining-only orders for parts cast elsewhere are outside this supply scope.
Do you supply bucket teeth?
Yes. JK Casting supplies custom-cast bucket teeth and related ground engaging tools to your drawing or sample, not as a stock tooth catalog. Teeth are made in low-alloy wear-resistant steel, heat treated to the specified hardness, or in high-manganese steel (ZGMn13 type). Send the profile, adapter interface, material or hardness requirement and quantity.
Is there a weight or size limit?
There is no fixed upper part-weight limit. Each casting is reviewed from its drawing, and the process, tooling and price are quoted per part.
Do you make construction equipment castings in small batches?
Yes, for small to medium batches and repeat orders. A casting needs tooling before the first part is poured, so one- or two-piece orders are rarely economical. Tooling and the price per part are quoted for each drawing.
