Default insert cast

How in the word do you use CAST with mysql? I've tried google for a basic example with no luck. Could somebody help me out with a basic example?

I am trying to insert something like 555.555 into a float column but I either get 555 or 555.6 in the column after the insert. *shrug*

Code:
$station_insert = mysqli_prepare($link, "INSERT INTO stations (Company_Name, station_name, Address, City, State, Country, Zip, Phone, Lat, Lon ) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)");


mysqli_stmt_bind_param($station_insert, 'ssssssiiss', $company_name, $station_name, $address, $city, $state, $country, $zip_code, $phone, $lat, $lon);
I've tried ii, ss and dd on the when binding... is CAST what I need to use for the lat and lon floats?
