Abstract
An aluminum alloy die casting method comprising the steps of providing a die casting machine having a gate for allowing passage of molten aluminum alloy, setting a flow rate of the molten aluminum alloy at the gate to be in a range of 5 m/sec to 15 m/sec, and press-injecting the molten aluminum alloy into a cavity of a die. With this arrangement, it becomes possible to obtain a weldable casting with no entrapment of air. An aluminum alloy for a vehicular part, which is formed of a die cast product manufactured by the die casting method of the present invention, is weldable and also dense in structure. As a result, these vehicular parts formed of the die-cast products are manufactured on a large scale at a low cost.
