A: For standard designs, lead time is typically 4-6 weeks FOB China. Custom/OEM projects require 6-8 weeks depending on design complexity. We provide a firm timeline upon order confirmation.
A: Absolutely. OEM/ODM design is one of our core strengths. Share your requirements for alloy composition, dimensional drawings, thermal properties, or special features like reinforced lugs or integrated thermocouple sleeves. Our engineering team will evaluate and provide a solution.
A: We offer competitive direct factory pricing. Common terms are 30% T/T deposit with balance before shipment, or irrevocable L/C at sight. Pricing is based on material grade, size, complexity, and order volume. We provide detailed, all-inclusive quotes (FOB, CIF, etc.) upon request.
A: Every batch undergoes a multi-stage QC process: raw material certification, in-process dimensional checks, and final inspection for defects (cracks, warping). We can provide Mill Test Certificates for materials and arrange third-party inspection (e.g., SGS) upon request.
A: We handle logistics professionally. Products are packed in sturdy, export-standard wooden crates. We ship globally via air or sea freight from major Chinese ports (e.g., Tianjin, Shanghai). We work with reliable freight forwarders and can ship DDP/DAP to major destinations upon request.
A: Our support includes detailed product handling & pre-heating guidelines, and responsive communication for technical queries. While consumable items like melting pots are subject to wear based on application, we stand behind our workmanship and material quality.
Limited Capacity Slot Available: Our engineering team has capacity for 3 new custom pot projects this month. Priority will be given to the first inquiries.
Mitigate Your Risk: For qualified buyers, we offer a sample program on select standard models so you can verify quality before bulk ordering.
Act now and receive: A detailed technical proposal, a competitive wholesale quote, and lead time estimation—all within 24 hours.
"Finally, a supplier that understands industrial needs. We've been using their SiC bonded crucibles for our small foundry for a year now. The consistency is outstanding—no more surprise failures. The cost savings versus our old European supplier funded a new grinding station."
– David K., Foundry Owner, Texas, USA
"Communication was smooth from start to finish. They sent detailed CAD drawings for approval before manufacturing our custom-shaped pot for a vintage furnace. The quality is on par with top-tier brands at almost half the price. Delivery was exactly as promised."
– Elena P., Maintenance Engineer, Industrial Plant, Italy
"As an importer for the Australian market, I need reliable partners. Jinzehong has been solid. Their documentation is complete, and their pots arrive well-packed. My clients appreciate the performance and the backing of a real factory with engineering support, not just a trading company."
– James T., Industrial Supplies Importer, Sydney, Australia
