Clothing andLuggage Industry

• Good mechanical properties (e.g., tensile strength > 250 MPa), corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal.
• Zinc alloys are used in hardware for both due to their strength, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal.
• Zinc alloys are employed in the clothing and luggage sectors to cast zippers, fasteners, handles, locks, wheels in luggage and other hardware components, typically through die-casting processes.
