Zamak

Zamak alloys are used for making various die casting products, which are widely used in the daily lives and over all industrial fields such as automobiles, machine parts, building hardware, sanitary fittings, LPG regulators, zippers etc.

Zamak 5 has the same composition as zamak 3 with the addition of 1% copper in order to increase strength (by approximately 10%), hardness and corrosive resistance, but reduces ductility. It also has less dimensional accuracy. Zamak 5 is more commonly used.
