Aluminum Die Castings

Aluminum die casting alloys are lightweight while possessing high dimensional stability for complex shapes and thin walls. Aluminum has good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, high thermal and electrical conductivity, as well as strength at high temperatures.

Because of it’s superior mechanical properties, aluminum die castings are among the highest volume, mass produced items manufactured by the metalworking industry today. commercial and industrial products. Aluminum die castings are important components of products like automobiles, computers, washers, dryers, refrigerators, furnaces and even toys. Some parts can be as simple as a faucet handle or as complex as a transmission housing.

Zinc Die Castings

Zinc die casting alloys offer a broad range of excellent physical and mechanical properties. Thinner sections and walls can be die cast in zinc alloy than in any of the commonly used die casting alloys.Zinc alloy generally allows for greater variation in section design and can achieve tighter

Dimensional tolerances.

Zinc is the easiest alloy to cast, it offers high ductility, high impact strength and is easily plated. Zinc is economical for small parts, has a low melting point and promotes long die life. Zinc die castings are versatile and can be found in many of the things that we use everyday. Zinc die castings are commonly used for electric motors, computers, hand tools, electrical connectors and faucets.
