Die castings commonly contain internal porosity. This porosity is generally localized to the deepest cross-sections of the part and does not extend to the outer skin. However, if the part is also machined, the internal porosity will be exposed and the part will leak if pressurized. Machined die castings that need to hold fluids are routinely sealed for life using synthetic resins. Because the sealant is internal to the part, the exterior dimensions and appearance of the part are unchanged.
