Safety, functionality along with magnificent appearance, are vital to automotive industry. Zinc alloy is hard, non-bending, ultra-thin, lightweight, non-sparking, non-corrosive and has excellent casting ability, making it a perfect metal material for automotive components that demand high mechanical and aesthetic performance. Using die-cast zinc alloys can also save both money and time.

Because of the high humidity in the bathroom and high frequency of use, bathroom hardware like faucets, hangers, handrails and hardware accessories are often made of zinc alloy. The strength, hardness, corrosion resistance and wear resistance of zinc alloy prolong the product lifetime while mitigating the risks of any hidden danger caused by structural failure.

Construction hardware covers doors and windows, cabinetry hardware and kitchen equipment. They emphasize functionality, safety and durability. High quality zinc alloys with minimal impurities produce high reliability products. Along with their excellent mechanical properties of high strength, high hardness and superb corrosion resistance, zinc alloys fulfil the requirements of die cast construction hardware. At a lower cost than copper, zinc alloy is popular in the hardware industry.

Locks are usually made of stainless steel, copper, zinc alloy, steel and aluminium alloy. Both stainless steel and copper enjoy high strength, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. However, their price is comparatively high. The design of aluminium locks tends to be simple and they are much lighter, giving some people an impression of lack of sturdiness. High quality zinc alloy is strong and possesses high wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Since it is easy to cast and can adopt different kinds of surface treatments, zinc alloy locks offer consumers a wider range of styles, patterns and colors. Many popular conventional locks and smart electric locks are made of zinc alloy.

The global trend of miniaturization is driving the recently rapid development of zinc alloy die casting technology. Meticulous and geometrically complex parts can now be die-cast with high precision. To add, these parts feature contoured shapes, very thin casting walls and tight tolerance. The complex meshed covers combined with precise thin-walled castings made of zinc alloys offer excellent electronic performance and shielding properties for consumer electronics.

The international standards of toys could be one of the most stringent among all the products, covering from shape, size, strength, chemical properties, flammability, electrical properties, hygiene, radioactivity to packaging. Although most of the toys undergo painting and electroplating, the surface layer would be damaged, exposing the alloy itself. Thus, it is important that the alloy has to meet the safety standards.
