Zinc Cast Rods

Zinc Cast Rods

All of our Zinc Rods are 99.6% min zinc. Our Zinc Anodes are made to the current MIL-A-18001K spec (aka ASTM B-418 Type 1) if you need a special alloy, please contact us for pricing. We are unable to pour cast rods with the Zamak alloys. Zinc Cast Rod are only available in 1 foot or 3 foot lengths.  We recommend ordering a larger diameter to compensate for this if it is an issue for you.

 Cast rods are not as pliable as the extruded rods and are more likely to have chill lines as well as some air pockets inside due to trapped air in the casting process. Please see these for examples of cast rods that have been milled.
