The company produces gray iron, ductile iron, and steel castings for use in farm and contruction equipment, motor vehicles, and a host of other products. Grede's cast products include axles, brackets, crankshafts, hydraulic end caps, and sprockets. The company also offer services such as design assistance, painting, machining, and sub-assembly. Grede operates 12 foundries in the US and one in the UK. In a partnership with Grupo Proeza, the company is constructing a ductile iron foundry near Monterrey, Mexico.
