Fabrication Guidelines for Zamak 3 Zinc Alloy<\/h3>\n

Soft Material Strategy:<\/strong>
\nZamak 3 is non-abrasive and relatively soft. Tip:<\/strong> We use sharp, uncoated carbide tools with high rake angles to prevent material smearing and ensure crisp exit edges.<\/p>\n

Workholding Sensitivity:<\/strong>
\nZinc is dense but can be more brittle than aluminum under high point loads. Tip:<\/strong> We use custom soft jaws to distribute clamping pressure evenly, preventing deformation or cracking of thin-walled housing sections.<\/p>\n

Coolant Usage:<\/strong>
\nWhile zinc can be machined dry, water-soluble coolant is recommended to keep the part cool and flush away chips. Tip:<\/strong> This maintains dimensional stability and prevents the material from building up on the cutting edge.<\/p>\n

Threading & Tapping:<\/strong>
\nZamak 3 accepts threads excellently. Tip:<\/strong> We use roll taps (forming taps) for smaller holes to create stronger threads without producing extra chips in blind holes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Primary Applications<\/h3>\n

Automotive Components<\/strong>
\nDoor lock housings, mirror brackets, and fuel system parts that require high dimensional stability and strength.<\/p>\n

Consumer Electronics<\/strong>
\nShielding cans, connector housings, and internal frames that benefit from zinc’s excellent EMI\/RFI shielding properties.<\/p>\n

Hardware & Locks<\/strong>
\nPrecision lock cylinders, handles, and decorative bathroom fixtures that will be polished and Chrome plated.<\/p>\n

Industrial Machinery<\/strong>
\nSmall gears, pulleys, and complex levers where zinc’s self-lubricating properties reduce wear on moving parts.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
