Recently I came to you for advice on casting an iron washer in an aluminium water pump casing.

Enclosed is a print of our latest water pump casing, RE.1989, which is in I/C. As a development on this, we would like to cast in an iron washer, as shown in the small print and have the rest of the casing in aluminium.

We would like your comments on this.
