Inola Castings works with customers to create custom belt buckles. If someone is starting a small country western band, Inola Castings can work with him/her to create an artistic belt buckle that reflects uniqueness and individuality. With belt buckles sold in quantities as few as one, this allows band members to make a small order initially, with additional orders in the future.

Large ranchers and farmers may want to incorporate ranch logos and/or brands into circulation in local areas, among family members and hired ranch hands. The professionals at Inola Castings can work with pewter options that reflect simplicity, or add splashes of color to incorporate personalized artistic mediums.

Inola Castings specializes in taking a simple artistic idea and making it a reality. Their creative team of artists utilizes the most advanced technology to create electronic artwork that transfers to any number of their products, including belt buckles, medals, dog tags, trading pins, coins, key tags, ornaments, jewelry, buttons and fridge magnets.

To honor trademark laws, Inola Castings does require that customers hold the patent, license or trademark logo if the item is not a unique design. They have products that can accommodate any size of budget, including pewter-base and zinc-base materials. The standard thickness of belt buckles is 0.125 inches, though they can accommodate metals up to 0.25 inches.

Sizes range from two inches, two-and-a-half inches, three inches and three-and-a-half inches to four inches. They can create standard oval belt buckle designs, rectangular, square and unique shapes complete with cutouts. Customers generally receive orders within three to four weeks; however, time can vary due to artistic designs.
