Die Cast Die Assemblies
For Zinc and Aluminum Die Casting The economy of using standard mold assemblies for zinc and aluminum die casting has been well established over the years. Standard "A" and "B" Series Mold Bases are both widely used. For zinc die casting, a Standard Water-cooled Sprue Spreader and Bushing are installed in place of the sprue bushing and sprue puller pin used in plastics molds. For aluminum, a shot-sleeve hole is bored to customer specifications. ALUMINUM DIE CAST DIES When ordering, please specify: 1. Item Number of "A" or "B" Series Mold Base. 2.
