Your Trusted Aluminum Gravity Casting Factory in China
Looking for a reliable partner in aluminum gravity casting? At Yongzhu Casting, we specialize in high-precision permanent mold casting with ADC12, A356, and EN AC-44100 alloys. Whether for electric motor housings or energy modules, our castings meet global OEM standards, with tolerances down to ±0.05 mm and production lead times as fast as 20 days.
What Is Gravity Casting?
Gravity casting, also called permanent mold casting, uses gravity—not pressure—to fill metal molds with molten aluminum.
This method is ideal for medium-to-high volume production of parts that require good surface finish and consistent mechanical strength. Unlike die casting, it involves lower equipment cost and simpler setup. Benefits include:
Reduced porosity and shrinkage
Good mechanical strength and dimensional accuracy
Better surface finish than sand casting
Compatibility with multiple aluminum alloys
This process suits components like gear housings, LED brackets, enclosures, and heat sinks.
Why Buyers Choose Yongzhu for Gravity Casting Projects
At Yongzhu Casting, we don’t just offer gravity casting—we offer consistency, precision, and real support for your production goals. Buyers come to us not only for our aluminum casting expertise, but also for our ability to deliver reliable outcomes under tight timelines and demanding specs.
Here’s what makes our gravity casting service stand out:
Reduced Porosity & Solid Cast Quality – Our process control helps minimize internal voids and defects, delivering stronger, more stable parts.
High Dimensional Accuracy – With in-house CNC and strict mold control, we routinely achieve tolerances of ±0.05 mm.
Versatile Alloy Options – We support ADC12, A356, EN AC-44100, and more, depending on structural or finish requirements.
No MOQ for Sampling – Small batch sampling starts from just 20 pcs, helping you test before full commitment.
Fast Lead Times – Mold + sample in as little as 10–15 working days, even for new designs.
Whether you’re in automotive, lighting, or machinery sectors, we treat each casting project like a long-term partnership—not a one-time order.

Aluminum Gravity Casting FAQs
Looking for answers to gravity casting questions? Our comprehensive guide illuminates the process, benefits, and applications of this precise casting method.
What is the difference between gravity and die casting?
Gravity casting uses no pressure, making it better for thick walls and larger parts.
Which aluminum alloy is best for gravity casting?
ADC12 is great for castability; A356 works well for structural parts after T6 treatment.
What’s the typical tolerance for gravity-cast parts?
We typically guarantee ±0.05 mm with controlled process and CNC finishing.
What’s your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Our MOQ is 100 pcs for standard parts, or 20 pcs for sampling.
