maybe they want the diameter to hold a particular spec but don't want to pay
for machining?

what is the part material? sand cast iron? die cast aluminum?

Thanks, RobG and Lucky Strike.

What you said about them was what I initially thought too. But why
would someone put a note on a particular diameter (not the others) of a
casting print with the phrase "diameter as cast"? I thought all
dimensions on a casting print after all are cast dimensions and should
be done "as cast". Am I missing something?
