Talk:ZAMAK

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ZA versus ZAMAK

I've changed the references to ZA to ZAMAK in this article. ZA alloys are different than ZAMAK. ZAMAK alloys are primarily for die-casting, while ZA series alloys are for gravity casting. --Chuckhoffmann 00:21, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] White metal ?

See Talk:White metal#Zinc-based white metals

This article claims that ZAMAK is also known as "white metal". Anyone got a cite for this? IMHE (UK), those are lead-tin, not zinc. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:41, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
