The term "pot metal" came about because of automobile factories' practice in the early 20th century of gathering up non-ferrous metal scraps from the manufacturing processes and melting them in one pot to form into cast products.
Casting weights have previously been limited to between 30 grams (1 oz) and 10 kg (20 lb), [note 3] [11] but from 2018 shots of 80 kilograms (180 lb) have become possible. [31] In the standard die casting process the final casting will have a small amount of porosity.
Zinc pest (from German Zinkpest "zinc plague"), also known as zinc rot, mazak rot and zamak rot, is a destructive, intercrystalline corrosion process of zinc alloys containing lead impurities. [1] While impurities of the alloy are the primary cause of the problem, environmental conditions such as high humidity (greater than 65%) may accelerate ...

A die-cast toy (also spelled diecast, or die cast) is a toy or a collectible model produced by using the die-casting method of putting molten lead, zinc alloy or plastic in a mold to produce a particular shape.

It was 1973, he had just moved to Seattle and his job as a university professor paid him (adjusted for inflation) around $76,000 a year. The house cost $124,000 — again, in today’s dollars. I am six years older now than my dad was then. I earn less than he did and the median home price in Seattle is around $730,000.
