319 Alloy: The Automotive and Aerospace Workhorse

The 319 alloy is a staple in the casting industry, known for its excellent castability, strength, and corrosion resistance. This alloy is particularly favored in the automotive, medical, and aerospace sectors for manufacturing engine blocks, transmission cases, and cylinder heads. Its ability to withstand high mechanical loads and resist corrosion makes it an ideal choice for critical components that demand reliability and durability.

319SR Alloy: Enhanced Performance for Demanding Applications

Building on the strengths of the 319 alloy, the 319SR variant incorporates strontium to refine and modify the alloy’s grain structure. This modification significantly improves its tensile strength and elongation, making 319SR alloy perfect for applications requiring enhanced mechanical properties. It is widely used in high-stress environments where superior performance is non-negotiable.

356 Alloy: Versatility Meets Durability

The 356 alloy is celebrated for its excellent castability and well-rounded mechanical properties. Its high strength-to-weight ratio and superior corrosion resistance make it a versatile choice for a wide range of applications, from automotive engine components to medical-grade castings. Its ease of machining further adds to its appeal, allowing for the production of complex shapes with precise dimensions.

Almag 535: The Marine and Industrial Champion

Almag 535 stands out for its remarkable corrosion resistance and high strength, thanks to its substantial magnesium content. This alloy is a favorite in marine and industrial applications, where exposure to harsh environments and corrosive elements is a constant challenge. Boat hulls, deck hardware, and various machinery components benefit from Almag 535’s robustness and durability.

Tenzaloy 713: High Strength and Dimensional Stability

Tenzaloy 713 is an aluminum-zinc alloy that offers exceptional strength and good dimensional stability. Its superior machinability and casting characteristics make it suitable for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications. Whether it’s engine components, structural elements, or tooling, Tenzaloy 713 delivers reliable performance in demanding conditions.
