Pot metal the caster adds other metals to the mix to strengthen the cast part, improve flow of the molten metal, or to reduce cost. With a low melting point of 419 °C (786 °F), zinc is often alloyed with other metals including lead, tin, aluminium, and copper. Pot metal is generally used for parts that are not subject to high stresses or torque. Items created from pot metal include toys, furniture fittings, tool parts, electronics components, automotive parts, inexpensive jewelry and improvised weaponry.

Electrical contacts operation is logically inverted from Form A. An alternate notation for "Form B" is SPST-NC. "Form C" contacts ("change over" or "transfer" contacts) are composed of a normally closed contact pair and a normally open contact pair that are operated by the same device; there is a common electrical connection between a contact of each pair that results in only three connection terminals. These terminals are usually labelled as "normally open", "common", and "normally closed" ("NO-C-NC"). An alternate notation for "Form C" is SPDT. These contacts are quite frequently found in electrical switches and relays as the common contact element
