ADC12 / A380 belongs to the common Al-Si-Cu series of die-cast aluminum alloys.
Its main characteristics include:
• Good flowability
• Good resistance to thermal cracking
• Good machinability
• Suitable for mass production
• Suitable for complex thin-walled parts
Threading Issues
Chips may be:
• Powdered
• Granular Higher silicon content may increase the risk of tool wear.
Common problems:
• HSS tool wear
• Thread dimensional abnormalities
• Thread shrinkage
