What is a drawback of using a short sprue in casting?

Show Answers

Explanation

A short sprue can cause incomplete gas evacuation during casting, which may lead to defects. Other issues include rapid metal solidification and insufficient room for reservoirs, but the primary disadvantage is ineffective gas removal.
