Zinc die casting
Material
-
Price
Low
The most affordable option. When you need many pieces at a reasonable price, this is the right choice.
-
Strength
Medium
Handles everyday walks and regular use. Sufficient for calm and moderately active dogs, but may deform under repeated strong pulling.
-
Corrosion resistance
Limited
Holds up fine in dry conditions, but starts to oxidise or change surface gradually with repeated moisture contact. Not suitable for permanently wet environments without protection.
-
Water
Fresh water
Tolerates occasional contact with fresh water — rain, puddles, brief immersion. Better to dry after being in water, otherwise it may degrade over time.
| Weight | Medium | Weight is noticeable — more sensitive animals will notice it. For miniature and toy breeds, consider whether it is still comfortable. |
|---|---|---|
| Allergy risk | Depends on finish | The material itself will not cause allergy, but the surface finishes commonly applied to it may contain nickel or other allergens. What matters is which finish you choose. |
| Aging | Degrades | Without a protective surface finish it deteriorates functionally and visually over time. Manifests as colour loss, surface roughening or the formation of rust. |
| Maintenance | Regular maintenance | To keep the material in good condition and looking good, it needs regular attention — treating, oiling or impregnating. Neglect significantly shortens its lifespan. |
What zinc alloy is
A zinc alloy that is die-cast – the same family as Zamak. The most widely used material in our hardware: over a thousand products.
Why we use it for hardware
Die casting produces complex shapes with a smooth surface at a reasonable price. Snap hooks, side release buckles, buckles and keepers – all available in finishes from nickel through antique brass to rainbow neo-chrome.
When to choose it and when to look elsewhere
- Colour-matched collections – the same shape in many finishes.
- Good balance of price and looks.
Resistance to damp and suitability for allergy sufferers depend on the finish chosen – check its page. For extreme pulling force, choose steel or stainless steel instead; for the sea, bronze.
How it ages and how to care for it
Unchanged as long as the finish stays intact; wipe hardware dry and skip long soaking.
Good to know
Zinc casting can even reproduce fine relief detail – which is why our buckles have sharp lines and crisp logos.
