American Standard Americast - A Lighter Option for Enameled Tubs and Whirlpools Americast is half the weight of cast iron with the same structural thickness and rich enamel colors

CHICAGO, KITCHEN/BATH INDUSTRY SHOW
April 11, 2008)

Americast, American Standard’s beautifully durable lightweight alternative to cast iron, turns 20 this year, still going strong in bathtubs, kitchen sinks, and making installation a whole lot easier. Americast is half the weight of cast iron with the same structural thickness and rich enamel colors, and offers superior heat retention and sound absorption. Pioneered following seven years of research and development, Americast’s unique three-layer construction consists of a smooth porcelain-enamel finish on high-quality alloy, backed by an injection-molded structural composite. The composite material helps protect the porcelain finish from surface chipping and crazing caused by reverse impact damage. Americast’s composition gives products a tight radius at corners for maximum useable space in tubs and sinks.
