In the hot chamber die casting process, which of the following parts is used for the pumping of liquid metal into the cavity? Correct Answer Gooseneck

A gooseneck is used for the pumping of liquid metal into the die cavity. It is made of ductile iron or of cast steel. The gooseneck is submerged in the holding furnace containing the molten metal. Then a plunger which is hydraulically operated moves up in the gooseneck to open the entry port for the entry of liquid metal into the gooseneck.
