Introduction to High Pressure Die Casting

What is High Pressure Die Casting?

High pressure die casting is a versatile manufacturing process in which molten metal is injected with a die casting machine using considerable pressure into a steel mold or die to form products. High pressure die casting is often used for aluminum and brass for many industries including plumbing, automotive, and agriculture. 

Advantages of High Pressure Die Casting

These molds, or dies, can be used to produce complex shapes with a high level of accuracy and repeatability. High pressure die castings are extremely durable, have excellent electrical and mechanical properties, and are cost effective.  Die castings are among the highest volume, mass-produced items manufactured by the metalworking industry.

High pressure die casting is an efficient, economical process that offers a broader range of shapes within closer tolerances than many other metal manufacturing techniques.  Die casts can be manufactured into complex and intricate shapes for any industry.  A high pressure die casting can be designed to complement the look of a surrounding part.

Options for High Pressure Die Castings

Die castings can be produced with smooth or textured surfaces, and they’re easily plated or finished with a minimum of surface preparation. Finishing services may be added, like polishing and coating options ranging from plain brass polishing or aluminum polishing to heavy-duty industrial service.
