2007 NAICS Definition

This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in pouring molten nonferrous metals (except aluminum and copper) into molds to manufacture nonferrous castings (except aluminum die-castings, nonferrous (except aluminum) die-castings, aluminum castings, and copper castings). Establishments in this industry purchase nonferrous metals, such as nickel, lead, and zinc, made in other establishments.

Cross-References. Establishments primarily engaged in--

• Manufacturing aluminum die-castings--are classified in U.S. Industry 331521, Aluminum Die-Casting Foundries;
• Manufacturing nonferrous (except aluminum) die-castings--are classified in U.S. Industry 331522, Nonferrous (except Aluminum) Die-Casting Foundries;
• Pouring molten aluminum into molds to manufacture aluminum castings--are classified in U.S. Industry 331524, Aluminum Foundries (except Die-Casting);
• Manufacturing copper castings--are classified in U.S. Industry 331525, Copper Foundries (except Die-Casting); and
• Manufacturing nonferrous castings and further manufacturing them into finished products--are classified based on the specific finished product.
