MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ALUMINUM ALLOY CASTINGS

(Tabulated in accordance with the Unified Numbering System for Metals and Alloys (UNS), Society of Automotive Engineers, Warrendale, Pa., 1975. This reference contains the cross reference numbers for AISI, ASTM, FED, MIL SPEC, and SAE specifications. These are typical properties for 1/2 inch sizes and may be neither the mean nor the minimum, but are properties which can be obtained when with reasonable care. The fatigue strength is for 50e7 cycles of reversed stress. Both yield strengths are obtained by the 0.2% offset method. Multiply strength in kpsi be 6.89 to get strength in MPa.)
