Aluminum die-cast trims provide stronger construction, more precise shapes, and superior heat dissipation properties than corresponding stamped metal options. Die-cast trims are stronger due to their single-piece construction versus a stamped trim that is made up of multiple pieces of metal that are fastened or welded together. The die-cast process produces trims with tighter tolerances than stamping, thus resulting in greater precision of shapes with smoother edges. Stamped trims are similar in appearance to die-cast trims as they utilize the same powder coat finish. In summary, die-cast trims look similar in appearance to the corresponding stamped trim but die-cast trims are of superior quality.
