Iron and Steel Sand-Casting process

In sand casting, molten metal, usually iron, steel, bronze, brass, aluminum, magnesium, and other non-ferrous alloys, is poured into a two-piece mold. The molds are created by compacting sand—most often mixed with clay as a bonding agent and moistened with water—around a pattern or model of the final product. The mold is split apart and the pattern removed. The two halves of the mold are put back together and the void is filled with molten metal. Once the metal cools sufficiently, the mold is opened, the sand removed, and the part taken out.

Several of the same parts can be cast at the same time, or a range of different parts can share a mold. Molds are destroyed in the process, but new ones are easy to make. The sand is often reclaimed and reused multiple times.
