Best Answer

Hot Wheels cars tracks are made of plastic.

A vinyl kind of plastic.

Edited....

It's actually polyethylene…. a mixture of *LDPE and *HDPE.

Not sure if it's changed in formula over the years.

*LDPE: Low Density Polyethylene

*HDPE: High Density Polyethylene

The first Hot Wheels cars were produced in Hawthorn California, USA. The demand was so great for the tiny cars that Mattel had to look over seas to Hong Kong for help. After the Hong Kong production stopped somewhere around 1982 they started being made in Malaysia. They have also been made in France and Mexico along with production starting in the 1990s in Thailand, Malaysia and China. Production now is mostly in Malaysia.

The bodies and chassis of most of the metal toy cars today are actually made of ZAMAK (German) "zink, aluminium, magnesium and kupfer", also known as Zamac (US) "zinc, aluminum, magnesium and copper". The New Jersey Zinc Company developed zamak alloys in 1929. Zamak has also been referred to over the years as pot metal or white metal. The most common zamak alloy is "zamak 3", but "zamak 2", ""zamak 5 and "zamak 7" are still commercially used. These alloys are most commonly used for die cast. Zamak alloys (particularly #3 and #5) are frequently used in the spin casting industry.

If the body or chassis is not made of ZAMAC it is made of a specially formulated plastic.
