Lack of pres-sure will produce the same result. 580 DIE CASTINGS AND THEIR APPLICATION TO THE WAR PROGRAM Blow-holes in die castings may also be caused by the phenomenonthat we sometimes call piping. Makers of rolling-mill ingots haveoften been confronted with this problem. In Fig. 9 is shown cross-sec-tion of another casting gatedat A. The metal flowing into the die at A
