METAL CASKETS

      The majority of metal caskets available on the market today are known as "protective" caskets. This terminology reflects that they are manufactured with a one-piece rubber gasket that runs around the inner lid of the casket.  Once closed, a locking mechanism draws the lids onto the base and the gasket forms a seal. This protective seal protects the deceased from the entrance of air and other gravesite elements.
     Many higher quality metal caskets utilize a sophisticated magnesium rust inhibitor process. Metal caskets are commonly manufactured in 20, 18 and 16 gauge metals.  Stainless Steel is a rust resistant material and is available today in the manufacturing process of high quality metal caskets.  Semi Precious metal caskets are largely manufactured out of elements such as Solid Copper and Solid Bronze ranging form 32 oz to 48 oz grades.
     Interiors are tastefully coordinated in a variety of materials form crepe to velvet allowing for a range of pricing to meet a wide variety of budget concerns.
