BIAN Die Cast Professional Aluminum Alloy Material Types Introduction
The most commonly used alloys for aluminum die casting in BIAN are A360, A380, A383, A413,and ADC12. Each has its own advantages and therefore the choice of the alloy depends upon the design requirements. Some of the properties of these alloys are summarized in the chart below.
Aluminum Die Casting Material | A360 | A380 | A383 | ADC12 |
Hardness | 75 | 80 | 75 | 80 |
Elongation (% in 2 in.) | 2.5 | 3.5 | 3.5 | 2.8 |
Shear Strength | 28 | 28 | – | 35 |

Ultimate Tensile Strength (ksi) | 44 | 46 | 45 | 46 |
Thermal Conductivity | 65 | 56 | 56 | 66 |
Electrical Conductivity (% Cu) | 30 | 27 | 23 | 25 |
Density (lbs/in3) | 0.095 | 0.099 | 0.099 | 0.096 |
Does Aluminum Die Casting Require Post Finishing?
Generally, aluminum alloy die castings cannot be put into use immediately after being cast, so the aluminum alloy die casting factory still needs to do some finishing, even if it does not require the appearance spraying treatment, it also needs to process to remove the burrs.
However, many aluminum alloy die-casting plants now use very original treatment methods with low power and many hazards.
File and general grinding machine are still the methods for many aluminum alloy die casting plants to clean up aluminum alloy die castings. It not only has low working power, high labor intensity, bad working environment, but also has potential safety hazards. The most important thing is that the quality of aluminum alloy die castings is completely dependent on the feel of workers, and the output of each person is still limited.
Advantages Of Aluminum Die Casting Parts
Advantages of aluminum alloy die casting:
1. Aluminum alloy has strong corrosivity at high temperature, and its conductivity and thermal conductivity are also very high, which is relatively light among the alloys;
2. The brittleness of aluminum at high temperature is also very small, which can be widely used in refrigeration equipment;
3. Aluminum alloy is light in weight, low in density, low in price and durable in appearance;
4. Aluminum alloy die castings have high dimensional accuracy and good stability.
5. In addition, aluminum alloy die-casting can be made into aluminum alloy die-casting car parts, aluminum alloy die-casting car engine pipe fittings, aluminum alloy die-casting engine cylinder, aluminum alloy die-casting gasoline engine cylinder head, aluminum alloy die-casting valve rocker arm, aluminum alloy die-casting valve support, aluminum alloy die-casting power parts, aluminum alloy die-casting motor end cover, aluminum alloy die-casting housing, aluminum alloy die-casting pump housing, aluminum alloy die-casting construction parts Aluminum alloy die-casting decorative parts, aluminum alloy die-casting guardrail parts, aluminum alloy die-casting aluminum alloy wheels and other parts.
