The Role of Wirco's Heat Treatment Rod Framed Baskets
Wirco heat treatment baskets are custom-made to fit our customer’s exact dimensional requirements and range in size from a few inches up to 12 feet and larger. Heat treatment baskets can also be produced partially out of castings and wrought material or supplied as an all-cast product from our Champaign foundry. Heat treatment baskets are used by most of Wirco’s heat-treating clients to contain and move parts through their furnaces.
Product Information
At Wirco all of our Heat Treatment Rod Framed Baskets are manufactured to OEM furnace Specifications. We can offer your heat-treating process rod frame, hybrid, and all-cast models for your furnaces. With us having the capabilities of being vertically integrated in our manufacturing process we can oversee our products from cradle to grave and when they arrive to you. Our baskets thrive on being fully fused through pressure welds and showcasing constant and consistent grain sizes within those welds while operating within your heat-effective zones.
The Benefits of Using Wirco's Heat Treatment Rod Framed Baskets

Superior Heat Flow: The open-rod design promotes unrestricted heat and gas flow, resulting in uniform heating and cooling across all components.
Reduced Warping and Distortion: Engineered to resist sagging and deformation under heavy loads and high temperatures, rod-framed baskets ensure consistent performance.
Optimized Load Management: The customizable design allows efficient arrangement of parts, reducing contact points and minimizing the risk of part damage during processing.
