Product Name Notes
Eastern Alloys manufactures mold-base alloys, also known as Kirksite alloys. Kirksite is a moderate strength zinc-base alloy that was developed primarily as a forming tool alloy. Dies cast from Kirksite...
Eastern Alloys produces EAZALL™ coating alloys at its flagship facility located in Maybrook, New York, in the heart of the historic Hudson Valley region, and at Eastern Alloys of Kentucky,...
No. 2 is the only ZAMAK alloy which is used for gravity casting; mainly for metal forming dies or plastic injection tools. This alloy is sometimes referred to as Kirksite.
No. 3 alloy is usually the first choice when considering zinc die casting. Its excellent balance of desirable physical and mechanical properties, superb castability and long-term dimensional stability are the...
No. 5 alloy castings are marginally stronger and harder than No. 3. However, these improvements are tempered with a reduction in ductility which can affect formability during secondary bending, riveting,...
No. 7 alloy is a modification of #3 alloy in which lower magnesium content is specified in order to increase the fluidity. To avoid problems with inter-granular corrosion lower levels...
Slush-cast alloy is a high-purity purpose-engineered product manufactured by Eastern Alloys. This alloy was developed to provide a high fluidity casting material capable of producing a good surface definition when...
ZA alloys were initially developed for gravity casting. Their mechanical properties compete directly with bronze, cast iron and aluminum using sand, permanent mold and plaster mold casting methods. Beginning in...
