Castings have football covered at the AT&T Stadium in


Arlington, Texas, from audio/ visual to structural support. Shannon Wetzel, Senior Editor


The Green Bay “G” logo on the Super Bowl XLV (played in Arlington, Texas) world championship ring was cast in 18-karat yellow gold. Precious metal jewelry is often made via the investment casting process.


Flatscreen TVs throughout stadium walkways and luxury suites are mounted to the walls with diecast assemblies.


Because many retired professional football players have a need for joint replacements, the NFL has set up a foun- dation and benefit plan for the medical procedures. Knee, hip and shoulder replacements contain cast titanium or cobalt-chromium componets because the materials are bio-compatible and corrosion and wear resistant.


High-end professional cameras feature single-cast magnesium or titanium bodies. Cast metal bodies provide better protection to internal components than molded plastic and are easier to repair.
