Zinc alloy die casting spare parts

Superior surface of zinc alloy die casting spare parts smoothness allowing for painting or plating. Requires such coating due to susceptibility to corrosion resistance. Zinc alloy die casting spare parts is easiest to cast to near net shape and can cast thin walls. Low melting point enhances long die life.

Common zinc alloy die casting spare parts include ASTM AG40A, AC41A, and alloy 7.

How do you cast zinc alloy?

Zinc can utilize both hot and cold chamber casting processes. Within the zinc hot chamber die casting process, the injection mechanism of a hot chamber machine is immersed in a molten metal bath within a metal holding furnace. The furnace is attached to the machine by a metal feeding system called the gooseneck.

What is die cast zinc used for?

Zinc alloy die casting spare parts are applicable in making several automotive industry interior components. The material has a higher preference than aluminum due to its strength. Examples of automotive zinc alloy casting include bearings, steering, and brake parts.
