What Materials Are Used in Gravity Die Casting?
Gravity die casting relies on a variety of materials, each chosen for its unique properties. Understanding these materials helps in selecting the best option for different casting applications.
Common Metals in Gravity Die Casting
The most commonly used metals in gravity die casting are non-ferrous alloys, including aluminium, zinc, and magnesium. Aluminium is prized for its lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties, making it ideal for automotive and aerospace components. Zinc alloys offer excellent fluidity and high strength, suitable for precision parts and intricate designs. Magnesium is valued for its low density and high strength-to-weight ratio, often used in aerospace and automotive industries.
At Alliance Connect, we specialise in these metals, ensuring that each material is selected based on its suitability for the specific requirements of your project, achieving optimal performance and quality.
Alloy Selection and Performance
Selecting the right alloy is crucial for achieving the desired performance and durability in gravity die casting. Each alloy offers different benefits, such as strength, weight, and resistance to wear or corrosion. The choice of alloy depends on the intended application and the specific properties required.
At Alliance Connect, we work closely with clients to understand their needs and recommend the most appropriate alloys for their projects.
