Abstract: A method for forming a product having cast-in components provides an insulating barrier of solidified sand formed next to the insider diameter of the cast-in component. The center of the solidified sand is hollow. Before pouring the molten metal into the primary runner/riser system that feeds the portion of the mold that will create the actual part, the molten material is poured into the hollow portion of the solidified sand through a separate runner/riser system.
