Zinc Alloys For Die Casting & Manufacturing

PHB pours vast quantities of aluminum and zinc per year. We are a global leader in manufacturing for die casting. Our highly trained metallurgists ensure that all alloys meet specifications through continual chemical and physical analysis.

Our alloys include:

  • Zinc: Zamak 3, 5, and 7
  • Zinc-Aluminum: ZA-8, ZA-12, and ZA-27

Zinc alloys are the easiest to high pressure diecast. They offer high ductility, impact strength, and can be easily plated. Zinc alloys have a lower melting point than aluminum which can assist in promoting longer die life.

ZA alloys are zinc-based die casting materials that have a higher aluminum content than standard zinc alloys. These alloys provide high strength characteristics as well as high hardness and good bearing properties.

MagmaSoft® Zinc Mold Flow Testing

PHB uses the internationally recognized MAGMAsoft® simulation technology to optimize tool design and zinc casting quality.

MAGMAsoft® simulation capabilities provide a better understanding of zinc injection mold filling, solidification, mechanical properties, thermal stresses and distortions, and much more. Fully menu-driven with an integrated solid modeler, CASD interfaces, and extensive databases, MAGMAsoft® provides a complete solution for design, production, and quality departments.
