Zamak or Zamac
Zinc Die Casting Alloys
Zamak is a family of alloys with a base metal of zinc and alloying elements of aluminium, magnesium, and copper
Zamak goes by many different names based on standard and/or country. While Europe uses the EN 1774 standard, America uses the ASTM B240 standard.
Of course, there are zamak varieties in the market that do not comply with any standard. Some manufacturers set their own standards according to the feature of the part they produce.
Manufacturers exporting to underdeveloped countries or producing products that are not given much importance in such countries may also prefer non standard zamak varieties with higher lead, iron or cadmium ratio due to the prices.

Zinc Price
Zamak Price
The price of zamak depends on the price of zinc in the LME (London Metal Exchange) in many parts of the world.
Zamak or zinc price is expressed as LME + premium. Premium price varies depending on the seller and the quality of the goods you receive.
Customers who purchase on annual contracts generally buy at the same premium price throughout the year.

Production
A section from the production line of the zinc factory
Molten zinc or zinc alloys that have reached the desired standards can be cast in 20 - 25 kg ingots, as seen in the video on the side, as well as in molds made in 1 or 2 tons special sizes, which we call jumbo size
