Alloys for Aluminum Part Castings

Alloys for Aluminum Part Castings. One of the mechanisms that fuel the metalworking industry and all the businesses that belong to it is the casting process, also known as the die casting process. This process has made a number of industrial innovations come to life, making it a must in today’s highly industrialized world. There are different die casting processes and, in the same way, there are a variety of materials that can be used for die casting. One of these materials is aluminum, specifically its alloys, giving way to the production of aluminum part castings and the popularity of the aluminum casting process.

Compared to any other alloys from or of any other base metal out there, aluminum alloys are used in the die casting process more widely or extensively. This is because of several reasons. For one, die cast parts made of aluminum are considerably lighter in weight. They also carry very high levels of tolerances when it comes to operating temperature as opposed to other die cast parts made from standard die casting alloys. Aluminum part castings are known to display noteworthy rigidity and strength, convincing die casting companies to switch from the material they are currently using to aluminum alloys. Moreover, aluminum cast parts also have good corrosion resistance, as well as commendable heat dissipation properties.

Alloys used for aluminum part castings are produced and used for a wide array of businesses, such as those that cater to automotive, medical equipment, kitchen implements, small to medium engine housings, streetlamp housings, and even aircraft hardware, to name just a few.
