Aluminium casting alloy (pressure die casting). Further properties according to EN 1706: Pressure tightness: fair Machinability (as cast): good Corrosion resistance: poor Weldability: unsuitable Further information according to VAR Verband der Aluminiumrecycling-Industrie e.V., Düsseldorf: Very good castable universal alloy. Characterised by less tendency to collapse and internal shrinkage. Very good machinability. Especially for die casting. Application: versatile alloy, also for complex castings, e.g. complex machine and engine parts for the automotive industry, electrical engineering, mining, etc., crankcases and other housings, electric motor parts, bearing shields and blocks, cylinder heads, linings |
