AOP FORMWORK specializes in ductile iron casting and precision casting of high-strength formwork and scaffolding accessories. With over 20 years of experience serving contractors, formwork suppliers, and construction distributors worldwide, we deliver reliable, durable, and customized solutions that meet strict safety and performance standards.
Our Manufacturing Processes
We specialize in ductile iron casting for superior strength and toughness, combined with precision casting and machining to ensure dimensional accuracy and consistent quality for every formwork and scaffolding accessory.
1. Ductile Iron Casting
High-quality ductile iron casting for formwork clamps, anchor nuts, wing nuts, and base jacks, delivering excellent strength, impact resistance, and durability under heavy construction loads.
2. Precision Casting
Precision casting processes for complex formwork and scaffolding components, ensuring accurate dimensions, smooth surfaces, and reliable performance in demanding site conditions.
3. Machining
CNC and conventional machining for critical features such as threads, holes, and contact surfaces, guaranteeing precise fit and easy installation on site.
4. Surface Treatment
Galvanizing, painting, and other surface treatments to enhance corrosion resistance and extend service life in outdoor construction environments.
5. Finishing & Testing
Final inspection, dimensional checks, and load testing to ensure every product meets international safety and quality standards.
