Zinc based Castings

Switch Housing for mining industry
Fully machined

Zinc Anodes for
Naval application
Longton Light Alloys also cast in a wide variety of zinc based alloy castings up to 5 tonnes ZA2 (Kirksite).
This is mainly used for prototype and short run panels for items such as car bodies.
The other zinc based alloys have applications for gravity or sand castings where high strength excellent bearing and wear properties etc are required. ZA 12 has high non sparking properties which is suitable for hazardous applications such as the Mining Industry.
