Where AZ91 Magnesium Is Used in North American Manufacturing

Die-cast AZ91 seat back frames and cushion pans on premium and some truck seats replace a dozen stampings and welds with one part at half the mass; volume stays limited by casting cost and by the corrosion care magnesium needs. The casting is the castings-forgings lens

The instrument panel cross-car beam is the one cross member that is often a die casting rather than a stamped and welded steel tube assembly; AZ91 casts the beam, brackets, and HVAC mounts in one piece at a third of the steel mass, on trucks and SUVs with the volume to pay for the die. Cast beams are the castings-forgings lens

Die-cast magnesium crankcase halves on professional saws, where the case is the engine structure, the bearing carrier, and the heat path, and every gram matters in a tool held at arm's length
