A distributor device for use in aluminium casting includes a rigid, substantially bowl-shaped receptacle () of a refractory material having a base member () and a peripheral wall () that extends upwards from the base. The receptacle has an inlet opening () towards the upper end thereof and a pair of outlet openings () towards the base thereof. The device is constructed and arranged such that, in use, molten aluminium poured into the distributor device through the inlet opening () is redirected by the distributor device and flows outwards into the mould through the outlet openings ().
