11 Americast Americast Technology Americast is an American Standard exclusive material technology used in the brand's bathtubs, using a patented process of bonded high quality porcelain, enameled grade steel, and closed-cell structural composite backing. Durable and lightweight, Americast offers a lifetime warranty and many advantages over cast iron: > Consistent, precise structural integrity: Cast iron is more difficult to mold and form, making the manufacturing process less precise. The composite material of Americast is much easier to work with. > Better sound dampening qualities: Cast iron projects the sound of running and splashing water, while Americast can absorb the sound. > Better heat retention: Cast iron conducts heat out of warm bath water, whereas Americast acts as an insulator. > Protection against impact damage: Americast is less rigid than cast iron, allowing it to absorb impact and reduce enamel damage. Key Points Limited Lifetime Warranty Durable and lightweight Many advantages over cast iron Western Sales Company sales@western-sales.com
