ADC10 Aluminum

A die-cast aluminum alloy in the ADC12 family, tuned specifically for post-casting machining.

Example: cast ADC10 Aluminum

What is it?

Similar to ADC12 with a composition adjusted for better post-casting machinability.

Key behavior

Easier to machine after casting than ADC12, useful when a part needs secondary machining operations.

Why choose it

Parts that will need precision machining features added after the initial casting.

Applications

Complex mechanical housings, valve bodies, transmission covers.

Casting notes

Worth specifying over ADC12 specifically when post-cast machining is part of the plan.
