Alloys
Used in the manufacturing of metal fittings, jewelry, fashion accessories, automotive components, and industrial equipment coatings due to their durability and excellent aesthetic finish.
Zamac
Zamac is an alloy composed of Zinc, Aluminum, Magnesium, and Copper. These alloys are highly sensitive to impurities—particularly tin, lead, and cadmium. For this reason, we exclusively use Special High Grade Zinc with 99.995% purity, along with pure aluminum, magnesium, and electrolytic copper to ensure the highest quality.
Available in: Ingots of approximately 7 kg.
Benefits
- Aluminum enhances mechanical properties and hardness while improving the alloy’s fluidity.
- Copper increases tensile strength and corrosion resistance, as well as overall hardness. However, it can slightly reduce dimensional stability over time, making the alloy more susceptible to aging.
- Magnesium, although added in small amounts (0.1% to 0.15%), plays a critical role in providing stability. Being more electronegative than Zinc, it effectively inhibits intergranular corrosion, a common issue in this type of alloy.

Pewter
This high-tin alloy is widely used in the production of jewelry due to its exceptional properties. It is known for its low melting point, excellent fluidity, and outstanding performance in electroplating processes.
The antimony in its composition enhances casting properties and provides a strong hardening effect. Additionally, this alloy can be produced lead-free, meeting strict regulatory and environmental standards.
We manufacture this alloy in compliance with international standards ASTM B102, ASTM B560, and BS 5140, ensuring quality and reliability in every batch.
Available in: Ingots of approximately 7 kg.
Babbitt Alloy
Babbitt is a metal alloy—typically tin- or lead-based—used as an anti-friction material in bearing applications. It is applied as a thin surface layer over a steel or bronze structure, providing a smooth contact surface that reduces friction between moving parts. It can be applied through casting, centrifugal casting, or soldering.
Aplications
- Friction bearings: Babbitt is used as the contact layer in plain bearings due to its excellent ability to reduce friction, wear, and heat generation between moving components.
- Heavy industries: Commonly used in industrial machinery, including large bearing housings, camshaft bushings, and shaft or sleeve linings. It is widely applied in sectors such as cement, steel, chemical, and oil & gas.
- Demanding environments: Thanks to its resistance to corrosion and wear, Babbitt is ideal for harsh industrial conditions.

Alloys for galvanizing baths
We formulate and produce special Zinc alloys designed to optimize galvanizing bath procesess, this is an effective solution for keeping coating thickness down, reducing Zinc consumption, promotes a more uniform and brighter coating, enhance drainage, and minimize defects such as spangles, striations, and fish boning. Each element serves a specific purpose — from stabilizing the intermetallic layer to improving drainage and surface finish.
